From a New York Times-bestselling author, a surgical nurse's life is in danger when her hospital boss dies mysteriously while under the knife. The Forensic Instincts team needs to find out who wants Madeline Westfield dead--and why. Under the leadership of Casey Woods, the investigators have the resources to do just that, working inside the law--and outside it. Casey's associate, former navy SEAL Marc Devereaux, is a man who's equal to any situation. Except maybe this one . . . Because Madeline is the only woman Marc's ever loved--and his only weakness. Now a nurse at Manhattan Memorial, she's terrified. Her life is in danger, so she turns to him for help. Manhattan Memorial is in turmoil. There's a merger in the works, and the staff is still haunted by their hospital administrator's sudden death--during heart surgery performed by Madeline's ex-husband, Conrad. A surgery at which Madeline was present. With a growing list of suspects, Forensic Instincts will have to figure out who has the greatest motive to silence Madeline. And they'll have to do it fast.
