Acerca de este libro electrónico
'I'm used to dead people,' said Sophie. 'The death rate at my last hospital was off the scale.' She looked at the window, and her eyes glazed over a fraction. 'I can hear death coming, you know?'
Unexpected deaths and untoward incidents are becoming alarmingly frequent at City Emergency Department. A&E Senior Sister, Aoife, begins to question if her new nurses are incompetent - or worse. Earnest new recruit Eden carries the Code of Conduct around in her pocket and reports everyone, including patients, if their views don't align with hers. But despite her self-righteousness, Aoife discovers that Eden has kept the scarf of a patient who died in her care. Is Eden hiding something? Is she dangerous?
It is Sophie who worries Aoife the most. Strange, over-confident, and seemingly lacking in empathy, how Sophie ever became a nurse is beyond her. When Sophie starts sleeping with Aoife's best friend, Michael, a man twenty-five years her senior, tensions on the ward escalate further, threatening to eclipse the fact that lives are at stake.
Aoife is the nurse we'd all want. Compassionate to the core. She's the nicest, kindest nurse in the world. Until she is tested to the limit . . .
