✦ Synopsis

It's amazing that there are so many different ways to die in a hospital that have nothing to do with being sick

Steve Mitchell, happily married with a wife and two kids, is in line for a coveted position at Boston's University Hospital when his world goes awry.His over-reaching ambition causes him tobotch a major surgery, and another of his patients mysteriously dies. Steves nightmare goes from bad to worse when he learns that the mysterious death was no accident but the act of a sociopath. A sociopath he knows and who has information that could destroy Steves career and marriage. A sociopath for whom killing is more than a means to an end: its a game. Because he is under a cloud of suspicion and has no evidence, he knows that any accusations he makes wont be believed. So he must struggle to turn the tables, even as the killer skillfully blocks his every move. Detailing the politics of hospitals, the hierarchy among doctors and the life and death decisions that are made by flawed human beings, Doing Harm marks the debut of a major fiction career.
