A masterpiece thriller: Al Romanzo is a World War II veteran living out his days in a nursing home in the coal-mining region of northeastern Pennsylvania. A nasty fall prompts an admission to a Scranton hospital where, a few days later, he dies after an unexpected cardiac arrest. His two children, who had abandoned him years earlier upon leaving for Southern California, decide to bring a malpractice claim against his doctors. Dr. Paul Wilson, the defendant cardiologist, requests a case review by Dr. Philip Sarkis, a brilliant academic who lost his career, his family, and nearly his sanity in a messy malpractice case years before. Philip and his partner Dorothy Deaver, dive into the case to find out that Al isn t the only elderly man who died suddenly and unexpectedly in area hospitals. And as they unravel the case, and their own lives are threatened, some familiar friends enter the scene to find ultimate justice.
