Synopsis:
At the age of just thirty-seven, Angela Dawson MD appears to have it all: she owns a fabulous New York City apartment, and enjoys the perks of a prosperous lifestyle. But her climb to the top was rough, marked by a troubled childhood, a failed marriage and even bankruptcy.

Thus painfully aware of the role of money in modern life, particularly in the health-care field, Angela returned to business school. Armed with a shiny new degree and determination, she founded a start-up company, Angels Healthcare, then took it public. With her controlling interest in three busy specialty hospitals in New York City and plans for others in Miami and Los Angeles, Angela's future looked very bright.

Then a surge of drug-resistant infections in all three hospitals devastates her carefully constructed world. Not only do these infections result in patient deaths, but the fatalities also cause stock prices to tumble, leaving market analysts wondering if Angela will be able to hold her medical empire together.

Newly-wed medical examiners Laurie Montgomery and Jack Stapleton are intrigued by this case and despite his protests Laurie can't help investigating further. But this will mean opening a Pandora's box of corporate intrigue that threatens not just her own livelihood but her life with her new husband as well.
