"Ever since her husband's death collided with the birth of her daughter, postpartum depression has taken hold of Veronica Shelton. She can't sleep, can't work, and can't bear to touch her beautiful baby girl. Her emotional state is whispering lies in Veronica's ear: You're a bad mother. Your baby would be better off without you. But not everything can be reasoned away by Veronica's despair--can it?"--Dust jacket flap.

Swinging from South Africa to England: one woman's hunt for her birth mother in an all-too-believable near future in which an antibiotic crisis has decimated the population. A prescient, thrilling debut. 'Combines the excitement of a medical thriller à la Michael Crichton with sensitive characterisation and social insight in a timely debut novel all the more remarkable for being conceived and written before the current pandemic' Guardian 'STUNNING and terrifying ... The Waiting Rooms wrenches your heart in every way possible, but written with such humanity and emotion' Miranda Dickinson 'Chillingly close to reality, this gripping thriller brims with authenticity ... a captivating, accomplished and timely debut from an author to watch' Adam Hamdy ________________ Decades of spiralling drug resistance have unleashed a global antibiotic crisis. Ordinary infections are untreatable, and a scratch from a pet can kill. A sacrifice is required to keep the majority safe: no one over seventy is allowed new antibiotics. The elderly are sent to hospitals nicknamed 'The Waiting Rooms' ... hospitals where no one ever gets well. Twenty years after the crisis takes hold, Kate begins a search for her birth mother, armed only with her name and her age. As Kate unearths disturbing facts about her mother's past, she puts her family in danger and risks losing everything. Because Kate is not the only secret that her mother is hiding. Someone else is looking for her, too. Sweeping from an all-too-real modern Britain to a pre-crisis South Africa, The Waiting Rooms is epic in scope, richly populated with unforgettable characters, and a tense, haunting vision of a future that is only a few mutations away. ________________ 'Engrossing and eye-opening, with heart-stopping plot twists ... a stunning medical thriller set in a terrifying possible future' Foreword Reviews 'A touching, gut-wrenching story of family mystery and tragedy ... a thriller that punches on two fronts – heart AND mind' The Sun 'Gripping and disturbing ... the medical research is convincing, the scenarios plausible, and the story is emotionally engaging. This is an incredible debut!' Gill Paul 'If the themes are dark and topical, the writing is exquisite. Breath held, I got to the finale with my heart in my mouth. Eve Smith weaves a complex and clever tale, merging countries and timelines; the result is a superb and satisfying novel' Louise Beech 'Margaret Atwood is one of my all-time writing heroes and The Handmaid's Tale is probably the best book I've ever read. Eve Smith and The Waiting Rooms really do challenge that long-held crown...' Random Things through My Letterbox 'Thoroughly engaging ... an eye-opening read' Crime Fiction Lover 'A novel of our times' Trip Fiction 'Haunting, honest and horrifying in its reality ... An epic and thrilling read' Book Literati 'Stunning dystopian debut. A prescient and alarming tale that seems just a whisper from reality' Suzy Apsley ' The Waiting Rooms will certainly distract us from the real world for a few hours and this is the immeasurable value of fiction. It gives hope that, as in Eve Smith's fictitious world, the possibility of a happy ending still exists' Die Burger ' The Waiting Rooms is a seriously impressive debut, a novel that is intuitive and chilling, one that will resonate with all in this current climate' Swirl & Thread

The Waiting Room is an adult-YA crossover about a woman coming of age in high school, college, and young adulthood, then coming of age again at thirty, when hitting rock bottom prompts her to revisit the choices that shaped her life.Taylor Collier has never faced her past-the distant past or the recent past. As a result, she's spiraled into a life fueled by alcohol and drugs. After her worried mother and best friend confront her, Taylor is given a choice-rehab or therapy. And so, intent on only a single session with Dr. Modos Marks, she enters his waiting room, planning to get in and get out. After all, she has successfully kept her most terrifying secret for fifteen years, so getting through one session with a shrink should be a piece of cake. But she's not prepared for what the doctor has in store for her. Session after session, he peels away the layers of her life, revealing that all is not as it seems-and unraveling a series of surprises that will leave both Taylor and the reader breathless.

J. Keith Cubbin trained as a Psychiatric Nurse at Shelton Mental Hospital from 1951 to 1954. He then joined the Royal Army Medical Corps as a National Serviceman and served out his time as Sergeant in charge of various departments at the Army Psychiatric Hospital, Netley Southampton. In November 1956 Keith returned to Shelton Hospital and as this book describes, worked as a Staff Nurse on Day and Night duty. During the years 1959/61 Keith completed his training in General Nursing at the Royal Salop Infirmary, Shrewsbury. During his career Keith held many senior Nursing appointments in Wolverhampton, Bolton, Sheffield and Neath and finally as a Chief Nursing Officer in West Yorkshire. Disagreeing with the idea of General Management and Privatisation Keith resigned from the National Health Service and was appointed a Health Services Manager in the Caribbean from August 1988 to August 1992. Keith now spends most of his time in quiet retirement on the Costa Blanca in Spain with his wife Rosie and is now writing his second book on the rest of his career.

The Reader was co-sponsored and co-conceived by CavanKerry and LaurelBooks partner, The Arnold P.Gold Foundation for Humanism in Medicine. Publisher Joan Cusack Handler and Gold Foundation President and CEO Sandra Gold observed that patients, while waiting to learn about their physical health, typically are provided only pop culture magazines--perhaps entertaining but without the solace and comfort that literature provides. The Waiting Room Reader was designed to address that need by bringing fine and accessible writing to "keep the patients company." Here are uplifting and inspiring poems that focus on life's gifts - everyday pleasures: love and family, food and home, work and play, dreams and the earth. This collection, originally offered only to hospitals and physicians' waiting rooms, was received with great success and is now available to a wider audience.

When considering a "waiting room", one visualization is that of a doctor's office or a hospital emergency room. The purpose of the room is a place for us to "wait" while in another room there is action taking place or about to take place involving something or someone who is near and dear to our heart. Another visualization may be that of a business office where we have to sit in a room and "wait" until it is our turn to go into the next office.In both instances, a waiting room is not always a comfortable place to be. For it is in the waiting room where our patience is put on trial. It is in the waiting room where our faith and our fears engage in a boxing match. It is in the waiting room where we are forced to "do nothing" but wait!Physical conditions of some waiting rooms are: cold, filled with unfamiliar people (who also are waiting), uncomfortable seating, and feeble attempts at distraction (t.v., magazines).Thoughts often run rampant over the "what ifs" and the "how comes." We find our mind sometimes spinning about things over which we actually have little to no control. And frustration looms and engulfs our mind and often yields emotional outbursts that show our humanity. Even though we are created in the image of God and we are His children, in the waiting room we sometimes feel neglected and forsaken.In life, we also experience spiritual "waiting rooms!" These are times in our lives where we may be going through transition. This is a process that is not always comfortable to undergo. As humans, we like being in control. And often, we lose that ability to "know everything" and "run everything." This frustrates us. And, if we are not careful it can hinder our spiritual walk and continue to delay our destiny. But, if we focus on spiritual things - the waiting room can be a true growth process and a joyful yet sometimes painful experience that takes us to a greater glory!
