In Charles M. DuPuy's medical mystery novel, Say the Word, readers will visit the shores of Maine and discover the ins and outs of a physician assistant's experiences at a substance abuse treatment facility.

Physician assistant Jim Booker asks a Mafia don to help, but does it end up making matters worse for him, especially when a police detective shows up asking questions?

When physician assistant Jim Booker "saves" the life of a Mafia don's son, the young man's father makes him a solemn promise. Jim remembers it when he runs into an intolerable situation at Serenity, a substance abuse treatment facility in Maine.

The resulting consequences of the don's actions threaten to land Jim in prison for the rest of his life. He struggles to come up with something, anything that will clear his name. He is helped along the way by Brianna, a counselor who works with Jim at Serenity. They join forces to try and get the tenacious state police detective off their backs, but they'll face numerous obstacles along the way as Jim tries to prove his innocence.
