In a hospital built to save lives, someone is learning how to take them.
Dr. Elise Navarro has seen her share of death-but when a patient crashes under baffling circumstances, and then another, she begins to suspect something far more sinister than medical misfortune. As the ICU medical director, Elise knows every detail should add up. But the numbers don't lie... and neither does her gut.
Jamie Lin, a sleep-deprived internal medicine resident, is just trying to survive the brutal grind of residency. But the more codes she runs, the more she senses a disturbing pattern. The patients are sicker. The crashes are faster. And someone always seems to vanish in the chaos.
As Elise pulls together a quiet team of allies-nurses, pharmacists, radiologists, and even hospital security-they begin to unravel a terrifying truth: the killer is hiding in plain sight. And the deeper they dig, the closer the danger comes.
White Coat, Black Heart is a chilling psychological thriller set in the heart of a teaching hospital, where every life hangs by a thread-and trust can be a fatal mistake.
