About the Book

An earthquake rocks Southern California, damaging Parker Memorial Hospital and the neighboring Simfact genetic research lab. That night, patients suffer critical lung symptoms and the medical staff claims the nurses spread bacteria from a patient’s wound. As the disease spreads, those with chronic illness or risky life-styles are dying, and bioterrorism is feared. When NIH and Centers for Disease Control specialists take siege of the hospital, the medical brotherhood begins to crumble. In the worsening crisis, a nurse’s stubborn search for truth jeopardizes her life and others before illegal and unethical medical practice reaching far beyond PMH is revealed.
