Publisher's Synopsis
In Harlem, in the mid-1990s, paramedic Ollie Cross is in his first year on the job, gathering enough experience to start a medical degree. But the shoot-outs, bad cops, unhinged medics, and hopeless patients mean that Ollie struggles to balance his instinct to help against the growing callousness that witnessing daily horrors seems to encourage. And when lives hang in the balance, a single job with a misdiagnosed newborn sends Cross and his long-serving partner into a life-changing struggle between good and evil.
