Publisher Description

Grief. Anger. Hatred. The perfect ingredients for revenge. Janessa McNeil’s life looks perfect. Her husband, Dr. Brock McNeil, is a renowned researcher and professor at Stanford University’s Department of Medicine. They have a beautiful home and can give their daughter everything she needs. Theirs is a life others envy. But nothing is as it seems. Forces are at work that will shatter everything—Janessa’s marriage, her way of life, even her safety. For her husband’s highly respected assertion that chronic Lyme disease doesn’t exist has done more than inform medical and insurance professionals. It’s ruined lives. One man’s life in particular. Now it’s time to make Dr. Brock McNeil face the truth. To make him see the devastation Lyme disease causes—up close and personal. And this bitter man has found the perfect tools to exact his revenge . . . Janessa and her daughter.

"I loved this book for light reading. The author 's style is like Joy Fielding's books. Very fast movingI liked the development of her characters and the basis for the book, Lyme Disease and its controversies. I was extremely ill for a long period of time and her descriptions of her symptoms, her thoughts on being ill and her experiences with the medical profession were dead on. I would definitely venture into another advernture with Brandilyn Collins."

Quotes

  • “This book stayed with me long after I put it down. Not only was it a page-turner, but the storyline about Lyme disease was fascinating and eye-opening. Over the Edge will raise awareness about this horrible disease and validate those who suffer with it.”

    — Terri Blackstock, New York Times bestselling author
  • “Over the Edge will draw you in early and keep you glued until the end with an unexpected twist. Humans can only be pushed so far, then they react. This is an excellent fictional portrayal of that frustration felt by so many right now in North America as medical professionals and researchers become pitchmen for corporations who do not have your good health at heart.”

    — Jim Wilson, president, Canadian Lyme Disease Foundation
  • “Over the Edge is an excellent mystery. I got involved in the story, and instead of my usual thirty-minute read before bed, I finished the book in four evenings. Over the Edge actively portrays the patient with the myriad symptoms seen in acute or chronic Lyme. This is especially true for those patients not fortunate enough to know about testing or find a Lyme-literate physician.”

    — Dr. Nick S. Harris, president and CEO of IGeneX, Inc.

    " One of the best Brandilyn Collins books. I have always loved the way she writes and although a christian author she has a twisted mind. Over the Edge is by far one of her best. I never knew the issues dealing with Lyme disease and the controversies surrounding it. After reading this book I had to go online and research the topic. The book was so informative and emotional. A great mystery. I think I will read it again!!! "

    " Really scary, but good book. I learned a lot about Lyme disease and the Lyme wars that I knew nothing about. I really felt sorry for Jannie, as her husband was a real piece of work. "

    " This was an easy read. It did serve to be educational on Lyme disease and the politics going on regarding different medical opinions of the disease. The mystery part of it was pretty good, but I thought overall, it was just ok. "
