Description
As a family physician in the town of Bedford, you see a lot of interesting clinical cases, especially among the influential Savoy and Sampson families. When Nick Sampson disappears and a body turns up with connections to Nick, you are drawn into the case. As you are challenged to use an evidence-based approach in managing the wide variety of clinical cases you encounter in Bedford, the cases in turn provide evidence for solving the murder mystery. At once a thrilling, interactive mystery novel and a wonderful guide for incorporating evidence-based medicine into practice, The Bedford Murder is unlike any medical book you will ever read.
