Stephen White Takes on the Mormons
This is the third installment of the Alan Gregory series. This book takes on Mormanism, it's laws and restrictions. For an Alan Gregory novel, he is suprisingly a minor character in this book. The main focus is Lauren and her sister, who is filing a sexual harrassment suit against a female member of the Morman church. While the book drags at times, it is still a good read and addition to the ...

Critical Conditions: An Alan Gregory Thriller (Alan Gregory) 25 reviews

Signet, 1999
Outstanding!!
This is my first book by Stephen White, but not the last. The plot is excellent with many twists and turns to keep me interested, not confused. It sees Dr. Gregory trying to help a young girl who may or may not have killed in order for her sister to get critical health care. However, readers shouldn't despair as it is not full of medical language or too much cumbersome details. I give this book a ...

So happy to have discovered Stephen White!
Like many of the other reviewers, I did not initially realize that Stephen White has an entire series featuring Dr. Alan Gregory. I started off reading Blinded, Manner of Death and then Remote Control before finally discovering this first book in the Alan Gregory series. I am now completely hooked and am happily working my way through the rest of the series.
Kudos to Stephen White for ...

Always A Winner
Both my husband and I always enjoy reading works by Stephen White. I think we've read everything he has written... It's like watching a weekly series on TV because you get to know all the same characters so well.
His novels are always page turners that keep you interested to the very end!
I only regret that due to arthritis in my hands, I have to wait for the paperback version each time a ...

"You can run, but you can't hide"
Whoa! this was a powerful novel. Not only is it very well-written and with great intelligence, but the concept is so unique I was captured from page one. The dialogue is crisp and innovative and I was very impressed with Mr. White's use of the English language. I almost wanted to take notes about the wittiest lines but it would have taken me away from the fast-forwarding suspense. Intensity, ...

I Was Intrigued From the Very First Sentence...
"Adrienne's tomatoes froze to death the same night that Arnie Dresser did..."
Seems like a strange way to start a book. From the previous books in the series we know who Adrienne is. But we have no idea about Arnie Dresser. Alan then narrates the story and we learn that Arnie was a psychiatric resident at the same time that Alan did his residency. I won't give any more away, but the plot ...

Lauren's Arrested!
This is the fifth installment of the Alan Gregory series. As usual with a series, reading them in order helps to understand and follow the recurring characters, inside jokes, etc. In this one, Lauren is arrested when she fires her gun and gives it to a police officer after a man is shot. We get a police procedural in arrest and see it from the prisoner's (Lauren's) point of view, limited as it ...

Another One I Couldn't Put Down...
Stephen White continues to please with Missing Persons. It starts with a bang when Alan and Diane find a coworker's body in her office and doesn't let up. As the story progresses, more people disappear without a trace. When Diane goes missing in Las Vegas, it is her husband Raoul to the rescue. Maybe that is one reason I like these novels so much. The main character doesn't have to always be the ...

A Departure From What We Expect...
This is the 9th book in Stephen White's series with psychologist Alan Gregory and a cast of characters that we have come to know over the previous eight books. The difference with this book is that it has little to do with Alan Gregory or any of the other characters. It was a risk in my opinion for the author to make his main star a minor character in someone else's story. And, the risk paid ...

A fast pace thriller....
I couldn't lay the book out of my hands until I finished if to the very end.
This is a typical White's book with the brilliant psychological insights and the fast pace rhythm of the plot.
Dr. Alan stand in front of an ethical dilemma - whether to break the client-patient contract or to ignore the "warning signs" and keep his patients secrets with him even though his wife could be in danger for ...

Welcome to Sherwood! (and Barnsdale)
Do you know need a reason to buy this book? I can give you an excellent one -- it's called the Table of Contents. It lists 700 pages worth of Robin Hood ballads, plays and more. It has the earliest ballads and plays where Robin is merely a yeoman, the first play that casts him as the Earl of Huntington, and later ballads that give the "origins" of Little John, Maid Marian and Will Scarlet. ...

White Keeps Getting Better and Better...
From the beginning, with his novel Privileged Information, I was hooked on the series. Each book has improved and the series shows no signs of growing stale. Perhaps it is the cast of recurring characters and White's ability to let his main character, Alan Gregory, not only share the spotlight with them, but from time to time to give it to them completely. In Blinded, for the first time half of ...
