Description
“Reinvents the medical thriller.”—Library Journal
Dr. Sarah Baldwin races to a Boston hospital with a young woman whose normal labor has suddenly become a matter of life and death. As she struggles to save both mother and baby, she doesn't know that two other women have already died under horrifying identical circumstances. And so begins Sarah's own nightmare, as she learns that the prenatal herbal vitamins she prescribed are the only thing these women have in common.
Soon Sarah is fighting to save her career, her reputation—her life. For she's certain there must be some unknown factor linking these women, and as she gets closer to the truth, it becomes clear that someone will do anything—even murder—to keep a devastating secret.

Over the tip...
3By campingdogsAlthough an interesting read, this book's plot was so complicated & implausible it was almost laughable. It reminded me of the comic books I used to read as a kid. I think I counted 50 characters...I had to write down all the names & their significance to the story so that when I picked the book up the next evening I could remember who each of them was. I only finished the book so I could submit a review. If I had it to do over again I wouldn't waste my money on this one.
