Powerful and thought provoking, four of the best trauma doctors in their field confront their greatest challenge yet. 
Turning Point is a highly-charged, gripping novel from the world’s favourite storyteller about how suddenly life can change for all of us, and that we might find what we’re looking for in the most unlikely of places . . .

In Danielle Steel’s powerful novel, four San Francisco trauma doctors – the best and brightest in their field – confront exciting and exacting new challenges, both personally and professionally, when given a rare opportunity.

Bill Browning heads the trauma unit at San Francisco’s busiest emergency room. With his ex-wife and daughters in London, he immerses himself in his work and lives for the little time he can spend with his children. A rising star at her teaching hospital, Stephanie Lawrence has two young sons, a frustrated stay-at-home husband, and not enough time for any of them. Harvard-educated Wendy Jones is a dedicated trauma doctor, trapped in a dead-end relationship with a married cardiac surgeon. And Tom Wylie’s popularity with women rivals the superb medical skills he employs at his medical centre, but he refuses to let anyone get too close, determined to remain unattached forever.

These exceptional doctors are chosen to work in Paris on a unique project with their counterparts in a mass-casualty training programme. But after an I speakable act of violence, their temporary life becomes a stark turning point a time to make hard choices with consequences that will last a lifetime.

MY REVIEW 

Danielle Steel is one of my favourite authors. I loved reading Turning Point being a medical drama novel. I can’t watch TV medical dramas, but I like reading medical drama books.

I see an advert on TV saying Characters make good drama and I can say the same here, good characters make good reading drama books . I enjoyed reading about all the cast of doctors characters. 

I’ve decided to introduce you to a few characters. 

39 year old, Bill Browning, worked at the emergency room at a hospital in San Francisco General Hospital & Trauma Centre. He was divorced, which he only had his daughters for Christmas every other year. Christmas Day he was Senior doctor, he liked to work all major holidays. His daughters lived with their mother in London. 

Stephanie Lawrence worked as UCSF as Trauy Doctor she had high hopes to become head of the trauma department. She was a very lucky wife, her husband had a job where he could be a stay at home dad. 

Thomas Wylie worked at Alta Bates Summit Medical Centre, he was seducer to women but never wanted a serious long term relationship. Will he find the right woman to capture his heart and settled down? 

At Stanford University Medical Centre Wendy Jones was dating a married man. 

A lot is about to unfold with these doctors, but I’ve only introduced you to some of the characters, what happens I don’t think it would fair to tell you, as you might be reading Turning Point now or in the next couple of days or maybe you have this medical drama on your to read list. If you like medical drama then I highly recommend Turning Point.
