Synopsis

'Sparkles with a realism and moral complexity . . . Taut, fast-paced and wonderfully engaging'THE AUSTRALIAN WOMEN'S WEEKLY

An addictive and timely medical drama from bestselling Australian authors Anne Buist and Graeme Simsion

Trainee psychiatrist Doctor Hannah Wright is back where she worked as an intern: the general hospital. With a roving commission to cover the mental health of patients across the medical, surgical and obstetric wards - from new mothers and burns victims to patients with kidney failure and torn ligaments - Hannah will learn just how inextricably mental and physical health are linked.

When she's not on call, Hannah finds herself navigating an unexpected friendship and the promising early days of a new relationship with fellow trainee Alex, before her grandmother reveals an explosive family secret.
