520    "Dr. Carrie Bryant's four years as a neurosurgical 
       resident at White Memorial Hospital have earned her the 
       respect and admiration from peers and staff alike. When 
       given the chance of performing her first unsupervised 
       brain surgery, Carrie jumps at the opportunity.  What 
       should have been a routine, hours long operation, turns 
       horribly wrong and jeopardizes her patient's life. 
       Emotionally and physically drained, Carrie is rushed back 
       to the OR to assist in a second surgery. There, she makes 
       a careless and tragic mental error resulting in 
       irreparable brain damage to her second patient. With her 
       confidence shattered, Carrie quits her residency and moves
       back home where her younger brother, Adam, a combat vet 
       suffering from debilitating PTSD, also lives.  When Carrie
       learns about an experimental program at the VA Medical 
       Center exploring the use of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) 
       that could forever cure the emotional and memory trauma of
       PTSD, it seems like a way back into medicine. Carrie is 
       apprehensive, but a chance meeting with David Hoffman, a 
       reporter for the Lowell Observer writing a story on PTSD, 
       helps her overcome any hesitation.  Her first surgery 
       appears to be a success until her patient mysteriously 
       vanishes. When a second patient also goes missing, Carrie 
       employees the investigative skills of David, and together 
       they descend into a labyrinth of murder and corruption. 
       And the price Carrie might pay for asking the wrong 
       questions could be her life. "--|cProvided by publisher.
