It's been several months since Dr. Elena Gardner's husband
died. She still has questions about her choice. Now those
questions surface again when she is attending another
patient laying in a vegetative state from a stroke. Like
Elena's husband, Ernest Pulliam is being kept alive by
machines. Elena is the last person in the room before he is
found dead, his respirator disconnected. It was the same
scenario with her husband.
The questions haunt Elena because she does not remember
pulling the plug on either man. Then the phone calls begin
every Tuesday at midnight, troubling her even more. There is
only sobbing on the other end, then nothing. She is even
more disturbed when simple notes arrive through the mail
saying that someone saw what she did and she will pay.
Perhaps she can put it all behind her soon when she finishes
her residency in Dallas and moves on to a private practice.
But in the small town of Dainger, TX her troubles follow and
begin to compound. The phone calls continue and several
other incidents occur that have Elena seeking both legal
counsel and psychological help. Will there be an end to this
misery? Elena turned away from God when her prayers for her
husband were not answered. Could He be the answer to her
troubles now?
This inspirational thriller by Dr. Mabry is sure to keep you
turning the pages. DIAGNOSIS DEATH is the third in his
Prescription for Trouble series. The characters surrounding
Elena are very supportive, giving her inspiration to make it
through each day. You'll be amazed by her strength as you

When her comatose husband dies in the ICU while on life
support, the whispers about Dr. Elena Gardner begin. Another
death during her training puts her under suspicion. When the
pattern is repeated in the hospital where she is attempting
to start over, the whispers turn into a shout: “mercy killing.”
What is the dark secret that keeps Allison’s lips sealed
when she should be defending herself? Despite her move to a
new city, the midnight phone calls that started after her
husband’s death follow Elena. Who is the woman who sobs out,
“I know what you did?” What does she mean by “You’ll pay?”
And what can Elena do to prevent it?
Two physicians, widowers themselves, offer support, telling
Elena they know what she is going through after the death of
her husband. But do they? And is it safe to trust either of
them with her secret?
