I have made it known in previous reviews that I love medical thrillers. Which is strange because I am very paranoid. Reading about hospitals conspiring in any type of criminal or heinous activity sends shivers down my spine.
At a hospital in Boston, patients start going into comas while undergoing surgery without any known reason. Susan Wheeler, a medical student new to the hospital notices the pattern of patients and decides to investigate further. As with any medical thriller she steps in serious shit and her life becomes threatened and the only way for her to get out of the mess is to uncover the truth.
Although this book is old and the ending is a little predictable, it still was very fast paced and thrilling. Susan is all on her own and everyone seems to be against her. She trudges on and doesn't give up and I like that. The mystery itself is probably a well known issue today, but maybe back when the book was published it was probably unheard of and shocking. Overall it is a really good and easy read. This is definitely going in my list of why I hate hospitals.
