Description
When a pregnant sixteen-year-old prostitute arrives at the emergency room, physician Toby Harper finds herself drawn into a troubling trail that leads from the girl’s desperate circumstances to an unexpected tragedy in Toby’s own home. As disturbing connections emerge, Toby must navigate a dangerous investigation while confronting the vulnerabilities hidden behind the hospital’s doors. Blending medical detail, psychological tension, and ethical questions about care and exploitation, this gripping thriller explores how far people will go to protect—and control—the lives of others.
