Nina Blakeman has crafted a twisted thriller in her book Blind Vision. Dr. Callie Wallace and her long-time friend Dr. Richard Cortez have opened up a neurology clinic in the small town of Sperling. When Clyde Murphy dies, his wife automatically targets Dr. Wallace. Meanwhile, Callie has been seen mock fighting with an invisible opponent by Gus Ferguson, has inadvertently belittled Marcus Davis, and while on call, her boyfriend reports Jane Timmons's substance abuse impairment. The odd behavior has the hospital administrator ordering her to undergo psychological and health tests. Dr. Cortez starts dating Sara Townsend, and immediately Callie feels jealous of possibly losing her best friend. To make matters worse, Callie starts having nighttime conversations with her deceased father.
If you are looking for a book full of well-developed characters, then Blind Vision will not disappoint. Nina Blakeman kept me on my toes with the multiple storylines, as well as adding mystery when it appears there is foul play. I honestly felt that Callie and Dr. Cortez would end up being with each other after I read the first few chapters. The end of this book threw me for a loop because I never predicted the conclusion. I disliked Sara Townsend almost as much as Callie did. The viewpoints of several characters are depicted and the transitions between them were effortless. I liked how part of a chapter would show what the after-effects of events were with suggested ideas, then it would display what had actually happened. The family dynamics thrown into the mix kept me from putting this book down, and I have no qualms in rating it a perfect 5-star story.
