Turno de Noche / Night Shift

Vuelven Jack Stapleton y Laurie Montgomery, la pareja de m?dicos forenses de Ceguera asesina.

Robin Cook arrastra a sus lectores a la zona m?s oscura y peligrosa de un hospital.

Lo ?ltimo que la pareja formada por los doctores Laurie Montgomery y Jack Stapleton necesitan en su ya de por s? complicada vida es un crimen. Pero la muerte inesperada de una de las mejores amigas de Laurie es demasiado sospechosa para no investigarla hasta el fondo. La doctora Sue Passero muere en el aparcamiento del Manhattan Memorial Hospital cuando acaba de terminar su turno. Jack es el responsable de realizar la correspondiente autopsia, y tras un examen preliminar considera que el ataque card?aco, que se present? como la posible causa de la muerte en primer lugar, es una explicaci?n poco consistente, por lo que decide posponer sus conclusiones e investigar las circunstancias, aunque eso signifique desafiar las normas. Lo que comenz? siendo una investigaci?n sobre el tr?gico fallecimiento de Sue se convierte pronto en un juego mortal y peligroso entre Jack y un asesino inteligente y trastornado, dispuesto a actuar en cualquier momento. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In this exhilarating new medical thriller by bestselling author Robin Cook, fan favorites Jack and Laurie are lured into the dark underbelly of hospital dangers when an internist dies mysteriously. Colleagues-turned-spouses Dr. Laurie Montgomery and Dr. Jack Stapleton already have their plates full with demanding forensic pathology work and family pressures. The last thing they need is the sudden death of a colleague. Yet when Laurie's apparently vital and healthy longtime friend Dr. Sue Passero dies mysteriously in the hospital parking garage, an autopsy is required, and it falls uncomfortably under Laurie's purview as the chief medical examiner. So when Laurie asks Jack to take special care with the case, he can hardly refuse. With his curiosity sparked by an inconclusive autopsy, the indefatigable Jack is compelled to resolve the case at hand, and sets out to investigate on-site at Manhattan Memorial Hospital, even though it means blatantly defying the Office of Chief Medical Examiner's rules. What started out as an inquiry into Sue's tragic passing soon turns into a deadly and dangerous chess game between Jack and the clever and deranged killer, who might just administer another lethal blow if Jack isn't careful.
