Audiobook Review: The Human Trial by Audrey Gale, narrated by Scott Graff

 

Blurb

Dr. Randall Archer is a misfit…

…in the brutal blue-collar home where he grew up.

…as a sixteen-year-old escaping to college, then medical school, on a full scholarship to Harvard.

…in the highest echelons of Boston society, where the woman he marries and the blueblood research partner with whom he shares his laboratory belong.

Even Archer’s brilliance as a pathologist catapults him into direct and dangerous conflict with the medical establishment he fought so hard to join.

As the Great Depression presses down around him, Archer teeters at the edge of a precipice. He must choose between his hard-won career and the sacred oaths he took as a doctor and scientist—before all his choices are lost forever.

My Review - 4 of 5 stars - 

Not my usual genre, but I did enjoy this story. A medical thriller/mystery that began in the 1920's. It was interesting how the events of that time period affected the story. Randall had a rough upbringing, but he was incredibly intelligent, determined, almost single minded at times, and moved upwards quickly. Over a decade, he graduated high school and college early, fell in love, met influentially people, succeeded during the Depression, discovered a medical miracle, and lost everything when he decided to do the right thing. I was not quite prepared for the ending, but it was one of the many possible outcomes.

The narration by Scott Graff was intriguing and well done. His different voices for each of the main players in this thriller enhanced the story.

I was given the audiobook through RABT Book Promotions, and this is my unsolicited review.
