In Toxic Minds by Anthony Lee, hospital physician Dr. Mark Lin faces a devastating truth: disinformation can kill. After a suicide bomber targets a clinic in an assault in which one of his patients is killed, Mark suspects an evil healing cult, the Path to Purity, rather than the anti-abortion extremists blamed by others. To uncover the truth, he goes undercover, treating victims while infiltrating the cult. As he nears the enigmatic Sun Priest, Mark realizes the danger is far greater than anticipated. Can he expose the deadly conspiracy before it’s too late? This gripping medical thriller melds the complex world of the healthcare system with a chilling exploration of a cult-like organization promoting dangerous health practices.

Characterization is a strong point in Toxic Minds. Dr. Lin is portrayed as a dedicated physician, driven by a moral compass, yet haunted by the system's failures, particularly in his encounters with Shannon and the consequences of her treatment. The supporting characters, including the enigmatic Sun Priest, reflect the deceptive nature of the Path. The writing is enticing, and the dialogues are excellently crafted.

It all happened so fast for Doctor Mark Lin, an Ivory Memorial Hospital, Anaheim physician.

It is bad enough he was on the phone with the patient during the attack and had overheard everything as the tragedy played out. The locals and some media houses blamed a group of anti-abortion extremists for the incident. But Dr. Mark had doubts, thanks to the phone call. A few encounters with patients at the hospital, belonging to a clandestine healing cult called The Path to Purity, confirmed his fears. The suicide bomber had been a member.
