SAVING MEGHAN

Book ID/图书代码: 06830018C00037

English Summary/英文概要: Can you love someone to death?

Some would say Becky Gerard is a devoted mother and would do anything for her only child. Others claim she’s obsessed and can’t stop the vicious circle of finding a cure at her daughter’s expense.

Fifteen-year-old Meghan has been in and out of hospitals with a plague of unexplained illnesses. But when the ailments take a sharp turn, doctors intervene and immediately suspect Munchausen syndrome by proxy, a rare behavioral disorder where the primary caretaker, typically the mother, seeks medical help for made-up symptoms of a child. Is this what’s going on? Or is there something even more sinister at hand?

Saving Meghan is a riveting new thriller full of secrets and lies from author D.J. Palmer.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 你能爱一个人直到死去吗?

有人会说Becky Gerard是一个忠诚的母亲,会为自己唯一的孩子做任何事。还有些人则会说她太执着于为女儿找到最终的治疗方法,陷入了可怕的恶性循环。

15岁的梅根患上了一种无法解释的病症,一直在医院进进出出。当她的这些病症突然恶化时,医生介入了,并且立刻怀疑她可能患上了代理性孟乔森氏症候群,这是一种罕见的行为障碍,患者的主要照料者,通常是母亲,会因为一些编造出来的症状为孩子寻求医学帮助。这是真的吗?又或者其中有着更加邪恶的隐情?

这是一部充满着秘密和谎言的引人入胜的全新惊悚小说。(LYR)
