Publisher's Synopsis

Dr Carrie Bryant's four years as a neurosurgical resident at White Memorial Hospital have earned her the respect and admiration from her peers and staff alike. When given the chance of performing her first unsupervised brain surgery, Carrie jumps at the opportunity. What should have been a routine, hours long operation, turns horribly wrong and jeopardizes her patient's life. Emotionally and physically drained, Carrie is rushed back to the OR to assist in a second surgery. There, she makes a careless and tragic mental error resulting in irreparable brain damage to her second patient. With her confidence shattered, Carrie quits her residency and moves back home where her younger brother, Adam, a combat vet suffering from debilitating PTSD, also lives. When Carrie learns of a experimental program that could cure the emotional and memory trauma of PTSD, it seems like a way back into medicine.
