Sacred Trust by Hannah Alexander


If you are like me and love reading anything relating to the medical field, you will absolutely love reading Sacred Trust by Hannah Alexander.  This is actually a husband and wife writing team; the husband an ER doctor.  This book uses medical terminology to weave an incredible story of caring and hope by the ER doctor and all the nurses and administrators that he works with on the medical challenges.
This book focuses on Lukas Bower, an ER doctor who moves to the small Knolls community to start fresh after having some problems at his previous hospital. However, he soon meets resistance from people who don’t care for his no nonsense way of doctoring and the fact that he is willing to pray with his patients and share his faith.  In no time at all, one of the head administrators is out for his job when Dr. Bower refuses to give morphine to a drug seeker who happens to be the son of a important hospital official.
In a moment when it looks like his world may come crashing down once again, he finds an ally in another doctor, Dr. Mercy Richmond.  Dr. Richmond has troubles of her own in the form of an alcoholic ex-husband who has custody of their daughter and a general mistrust of the male population.  Through a tragic turn of events, she will find herself leaning on Dr. Bower and wondering if he is like every other man she has ever known or if his Christianity is real and what makes him different.
I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did!!  Happy Reading!
