Description


They called it "minor surgery," but Nancy Greenly, Sean Berman and a dozen others-all admitted to Boston Memorial Hospital for routine procedures-were victims of the same inexplicable, hideous tragedy on the operating table. They never woke up.
Susan Wheeler is a 23-year-old third-year medical student working as a trainee at Boston Memorial Hospital. Two patients during her residency mysteriously go into comas immediately after their operations due to complications from anesthesia. Susan begins to investigate the causes behind both of these alarming comas and discovers the oxygen line in Operating Room 8 has been tampered with to induce carbon monoxide poisoning.
After Susan discovers the evil nature of the Jefferson Institute--an intensive care facility where patients are suspended from ceiling by wires in rooms walled by glass and kept alive and healthy until they can be harvested for healthy organs--her life is in danger. Will she become the next victim of large-scale black market organ dealing?
