O knihe

Jay Barlow leaves a career as a road musician to settle down to a quiet life as a biomedical electronic technician at prestigious Kirkwood Medical Center. While performing a routine inspection on a defibrillator used to shock human hearts into action, Jay receives an electrical jolt that starts a sinister, dangerous and ultimately fatal series of events. After his accident Jay is cared for by pretty ER nurse, Debbie Farrell, who he truly notices for the first time. Jay and his boss, Dan Harris, watch as the Biomedical Department is rocked by a series of mysterious--and potentially lethal--equipment malfunctions. As Jay's romance with Debbie grows, he and Dan begin to suspect deliberate sabotage--but why would anyone booby-trap machines designed to save lives? Jay himself becomes a suspect, and then watches in horror as a fellow technician dies in an accident caused by a faulty machine. When the breakdowns are used as an excuse to close down the entire department, Jay decides he must track down the killer before more innocent people are sacrificed. He suspects everyone, including his best friend, before uncovering the ruthless killer. Finally, he recruits the entire department and other hospital staff in a bizarre, fitting--and very satisfying--plot of revenge.
