At Suffolk County General Hospital, three brilliant, vital young men are brought together by their ambition and their passionate dedication to life. But they work in the shadow of the Death Committee, a terrifying hospital tribunal where doctors judge one another and decide who is to blame when a death could have been prevented. During one memorable year, in love and fear, weakness and victory, the young doctors must face the crucial dramas and triumphs of hospital life. And ultimately, each must reconcile an inner struggle with the demands of his heritage.
Noah Gordon has worked in publishing, as a medical correspondent, and as science editor of the Boston Herald before becoming an author.
