Book description
Angela Dawson, M. D., appears to have it all: at thirty-seven, she owns
a fabulous New York City apartment, a stunning seaside house on
Nantucket, and enjoys the perks of her prosperous lifestyle. With her
controlling interest in three busy specialty hospitals in NYC and plans
for others in Miami and Los Angeles, Angela's future looks very bright.
But her climb to the top was rough, marked by a troubled childhood, a
failed marriage, and the devastating blow of bankruptcy. Then a surge of
drug-resistant staph infections in all three hospitals devastates
Angela's carefully constructed world. Not only do the infections result
in patient deaths, but the fatalities cause stock prices to tumble. Will
Angela be able to hold her empire together? Newly married Medical
examiners Laurie Montgomery and Jack Stapleton are professionally and
personally intrigued by these deaths. With Jack facing surgery in one of
the hospitals to repair a torn ligament, Laurie can't help
investigating, opening a Pandora's box of corporate intrigue that
threatens not just her livelihood, but her life with Jack as well.
Dr Robin Cook lives and works in Florida.
