Publisher's Synopsis
Dr. Derek Bark is young, single and generous. He's a Type B person who always turns the other cheek. Dr. Bard's first contact with undertaker Peter "Pete" Domici occurs in the middle of a sinking casino, 5 feet below the water level of the Fox River during an encounter that leaves an innocent person dead. The eye surgeon wants nothing more than to forget the whole thing and return to his work, giving blind people sight through a surgical laser. But a brutal murder at Arlington Park follows less than 24 hours later and the ugly aftermath leaves the eye surgeon wondering why unseen killers always seem one step ahead of him. Strange happenings at his medical practice and an elusive artist that Derek would like to know better occupy most of his attention. The deadly threat that Dr. Bard tries to ignore keeps re-appearing until the doctor realizes a dead surgeon never operated on anyone, and all the good deeds in the world don't mean spit when a killer wants you dead.
