Maizey Eddings writes very thoughtful novels that fictionally address psychological issues that plague ordinary people. In The Plus One the issue is PTSD and the doctor who suffers from it. Jude works for an organization that sends doctors to disaster areas to service the wounded. He was ill prepared for the horrors and losses of his stint. Indira is a long time frenemy of Jude. They form an uneasy pact for him to be her plus one at her brother’s wedding. The turns and twists of their relationship are beautiful and hard, each somehow muddling through it all.
An excellent, excellent novel.
