"Breaking Apart...features the two physicians teaming up again, this time to explore the cruel reality of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder...the reader is taken on a journey full of twists and turns to arrive at the truth. It's a great read!"

-Deven Greene, Author of the Erica Rosen, M.D. trilogy

Dr. Marnie Liccione and Dr. Louise Finnerty team up again to investigate the violent death of a young veteran at a Colorado VA Behavioral Health clinic. Was it suicide or murder?

The violent death of Josh Baker, a young veteran and patient at the Front Range VA Behavioral Health Clinic, thrusts Marnie Liccione, M.D. and Louise Finnerty, M.D. into a fast-paced murder mystery set within America's largest health care system. Is Josh another victim of the suicide epidemic or something more sinister?

Questions from Josh's widow, who feels that her world is breaking apart after his death, convince Marnie and Louise there's more to the story. In their search for answers, they uncover a prescription drug diversion scheme masterminded by those who may be also involved in the illegal sale of krokodil, a deadly and disfiguring opiate.

As they move closer to the truth of the circumstances surrounding Josh's death, sinister forces will threaten their lives. Will they find the answers they need to give his widow solace?
