The main character of this series is Dr. Hope Sze. She’s an independent woman that works in the medical field, and she came to Montreal with a mission. Actually, a few of them. She wants to get through her residency in family medicine no matter what. She would also like to go somewhere to try some pain au chocolat. She would also like to try and be social, maybe even going out for a date at some point during the course of the upcoming two years.

The good news is that when it comes to dating, Montreal has a ton of cute guys everywhere you look. But when she’s on her first shift in the emergency room, she has an actual emergency come her way. A doctor is coding blue in the locker room and she has to try to resuscitate him. He also happens to be one of the most loved, smartest doctors at St. Joseph’s. But as it turns out, this charming professional cannot be saved.

Now it appears that it’s either an accident or murder. The cops speculate it was an insulin overdose. But that doesn’t explain being in the OR area late at night without any good reason. Hope wants to get to the bottom of this, believing it’s murder. As she attempts to find the killer, she is joined by two men that want to apparently help her. One of them is charming, but are the men innocent or looking to see what she finds?

Hope’s trying to do what she can to solve this case, but at the end of the day, her only mission is to survive. She’s already in over her head. Should she keep going or abandon the detective work and focus on her career? Read this thrilling novel to find out what happens next!

Life has been interesting lately for Dr. Hope Sze. Just a week before, she solved her first amateur case. But she’s done with murder investigations for now since she practically got killed during the process of it all.

Then she starts her rotation and the first patient confides that her daughter’s passed away and that she thinks someone killed her. The mother appears distraught and Hope feels the pull to get involved, even if she doesn’t know how she’d be able to take on an 8-year-old murder case that the Montreal cops couldn’t solve.

Hope gets two smart men, her ex and a doctor, to help her work the case. But with a potential murderer still out there that could strike again, Hope’s got to work with one eye open. Can she crack the case and make it through unharmed? Read this thriller to find out!
