Books Read: Do No Harm by Jack Jordan

MY CHILD HAS BEEN TAKEN. 
AND I’VE BEEN GIVEN A CHOICE . . . 
KILL A PATIENT ON THE OPERATING TABLE 
OR LOSE MY SON FOREVER.

The man lies on the table in front of me.
As a surgeon, it’s my job to save him.
As a mother, I know I must kill him.
You might think that I’m a monster.
But there really is only one choice.
I must get away with murder.
Or I will never see my son again. 

I’VE SAVED MANY LIVES. 
WOULD YOU TRUST ME WITH YOURS?

She begins to obsessively dedicate her sleepless nights to discovering what happened to Finn Matthews, the mysterious author of the journal. Why was he convinced someone wanted to kill him? And why, in the midst of a string of murders, won't the police investigate his disappearance?

Rose is determined to uncover the truth. But she has no idea what the truth will cost her...

The Write Stuff with... Jack Jordan

Today it's my pleasure to be kicking off week 2 of the Before Her Eyes blog tour and it's my pleasure to welcome Jack Jordan to the blog to talk about his writing and what it was like seeing his book on the shelf for the first time.  But not only that I have an extract to share with you too which should certainly whet your appetite for this chilling read.

Seeing my book on the shelf for the first time was a total game-changer

Many people think of authors as having a glamorous lifestyle. We wake up each morning to a flurry of ideas, make a pot of fresh coffee, and tap at the keyboard all day by a sunlit window to the sound of birdsong, with a small fortune to pay for the house to be kept clean, the cupboards filled, the garden groomed and beautiful to the eye.

In reality, this is a small margin of authors’ lives (sorry to disappoint the ‘book pirates’ *cough* they should be called thieving, self-entitled criminals *cough, cough* who have recently been quoted in the media as thinking of us authors as elitists). For a lot of us, writing – a full-time job with a full-time workload – must fit around a job that pays the bills. Some authors juggle family and parenthood. What I’m saying is: we’re a tired, underpaid bunch, stumbling over each other for space in the same metaphorical boat.

I love writing, or rather, I have to write - it’s the only thing I know. It’s what gets me up in the morning and keeps me awake at night. But it’s also an extremely hard profession. As authors, we must armour ourselves against rejection and negative reviews, prove the validity of our profession to people we’ve just met as they ask about sales figures and income; we have to write because we love it, knowing that there is no guarantee we’ll ever get to depend on our careers to fill our stomachs, despite the sacrifice of sleep, days off, our own money, and something I have heard people call a ‘social life’.
