Nobody really likes going to the doctors, do they? I mean, that antiseptic smell, the silence (of the lambs) of the waiting room except for the odd groan and sniffle, the weird sounds your doctor makes while assessing the situation and most of all the unpleasant procedures.

Seduced at fifteen by her family doctor, Shelley Charalambous is battered and cut off from friends and family as her physician husband ruthlessly pursues his addictions to sex and gambling, while plotting the murder of a beautiful teenage patient. Incredibly, the College of Physicians and Surgeons fails to stop Dr. Josephakis Charalambous, the enigmatic black belt karate expert, in his quest for power and money, while his vulnerable young wife is left to decide whether she dare stand up to a manipulative and dangerous one-man cult. Superbly written and researched by former Vancouver Province reporter John Griffiths, Fatal Prescription is the compelling account of one of the most unusual crimes in recent North American history. Its pages will shock and surprise everyone, including the medical, legal and government establishments wherever this book is sold. Book Reviews By Douglas Setteron April 7, 2009A creepy read about a sadistic doctor and karate instructed who molested patients and abused prostitutes for over 15 years. It is revolting to think how much Dr. Joseph Charalambus got away with, how apathetic the College of Physicians were. While the book is pain-stakingly detailed, it is also pain-stakingly detailed. It reads more like a long newspaper item than a story. If the book was about half the size, it might make for a more entertaining read.
A groundbreaking novel exploring the intersection between race, class and mental health in the UK 'A strong and humane work of fiction' Jackie Kay 'That is the glory of being a mental patient. Nothing is impossible.' It is the 1990s, and Gloria is living in a London psychiatric ward. She is unapologetically loud, audacious and eternally on the brink of bursting into song. After several months of uninterrupted routine, she is joined by another young black woman - Merle - who is full of silences and fear. Unable to confide in their doctors, they agree to journal their pasts. Whispered into tape recorders and scrawled ferociously at night, the remarkable stories of their lives are revealed. In this tender, deeply-moving depiction of mental health, Roy creates a striking portrait of two women finding strength in their shared vulnerability, as they navigate a system that fails to protect them. Life-affirming and fearlessly hopeful, this is an unforgettable story. 'This is a novel of daring - enjoyable, surprising and original' Bernardine Evaristo 'A striking commentary' Scotsman 'A strong, humorous and moving piece of fiction . . . such is the life injected into the characters that by the end of the novel there remains that reluctance to part with people you have come to love' Calabash 'A joy' Pride 'Unflinchingly told . . . harrowing but also shockingly funny' Big Issue
