In this “nerve-wracking” (Chicago Sun-Times) novel, a doctor discovers that neither her marriage nor her job is what she thought—and her quest to find the truth may just kill her, from the #1 bestselling “master of the medical thriller” (The New York Times). From the first moment pathology resident Cassandra Cassidy meets brilliant cardiac surgeon Thomas Kingsley, she knows they are meant to be together. Forced by a deteriorating eye condition to switch from her chosen field to psychiatry, Cassandra needs the support and approval the charismatic doctor so passionately offers. Thomas finds in the beautiful and vulnerable girl the boundless devotion he so desperately requires. But as Thomas continues his meteoric rise, what should have been fairy-tale happiness begins to disintegrate.
