description: A sharply etched medical thriller full of wit, drama and psychological suspense. Dr Evelyn Sutcliffe spends her working day keeping death at bay, but now it intrudes into her home. The life-and-death contest waged daily in the ER is a constant part of her existence, so home represents a refuge from frenzy, anxiety, uncertainty -- and blood. But now a dear friend and colleague is left clinging to his life by the barest of threads struck down by poison he ingested while cooking in Evelyn's Manhattan apartment kitchen. On a night when she was supposed to be celebrating, she's back in the emergency room frantically trying to save a life, and forced to accept three there's a killer near at hand, and the killings have only just begun...and maybe she is the intended victim.
