This is the FIFTH fast-paced MEDICAL THRILLER in The Gina Mazzio Series
JUST WHERE IT OUGHT TO BE SAFEST...IS WHERE IT’S MOST DANGEROUS…!
Is it possible to get so busy you don't notice a stalker? Actually, it's likely, in a hospital, in the middle of a deadly flu epidemic. Your focus is on saving people, not looking over your shoulder. So it almost happens to San Francisco RN Gina Mazzio, who's further distracted by personal issues.

But then a fellow nurse gets killed. Even in the middle of a break-up with a long-time boy friend, and the chaos of the epidemic, there’s no ignoring that. And the nurse isn't the only one—a lot more patients are dying than ought to be.

Then come the threats.

In a Gina Mazzio medical thriller, it's never just a murder mystery; or even just a hospital mystery. It’s likely to be a conspiracy, a kidnapping, something really big—or else a lot of somethings. In this one, Gina herself is being targeted by the murderer, and her estranged love, Harry Lucke, is the target of her vicious ex-husband. As if that weren’t enough, even nurses aren't immune from the flu—Gina gets it, and now, sick as the proverbial Fido, she has to deal with not one but two murderers. Plus the mysterious flu deaths.

These authors really know how to amp it up! They make you see things that’ll keep you awake—if your pounding heart isn’t enough.

For fans of hard-boiled medical crime and suspense. As well as lovers of, strong women sleuths, hospital mysteries, and all medical fiction, especially fans of Tess Gerritsen, Carolyn McCray, Eileen Dreyer, Lisa Genova and Robin Cook. It will delight devotees of Patricia Cornwell and Kathy Reichs as well!
