DCI Jack Carston faces a united hospital staff insisting that the two fatal 'errors' couldn't have happened. As he investigates further, Carston discovers that a student in Hayne's department, Sandra Scott, is being sexually harassed by a member of the department and targeted by a stalker. Leaving only shadows to reveal the truth... Politics makes for strange bedfellows in the world of academia and medical maneuvering. Following the convoluted strands takes Carston in unexpected directions as he unravels the mystery. What he finds is a final twist that surprises even him.
