Code Blues

What if a brilliant killer stalks the halls of a Montreal hospital, and you're the only one who knows?

Dr. Hope Sze dives into her family medicine residency braced for anything from newborn babies to foot ulcers.

The one thing Hope doesn't expect? Murder.

Someone killed her supervising physician so cleverly that it looks like an accident.

Now Hope fights not only to save lives around the clock, but to unmask the killer, while two different but equally compelling men draw Hope into their own schemes.

Sex. Drugs. Doctors.

Written by a Derringer Award-winning emergency physician.

Because medicine can be murder.

"Drawing on her personal experiences in the ER in Canada, Yi has created medical thrillers that shine with authenticity and are impossible to put down. Code Blues provides the perfect introduction to a world we often experience, but rarely understand."Kris Nelscott, New York Times bestseller

Intrigued by the author's back story, I decided to read Code Blues, the first book in the Hope Sze Medical Mystery series. Captivated from the start, I found myself enmeshed in a medical drama that kept me up two nights in a row. From Ms. Yi's vivid descriptions, I could easily imagine the dilapidated Montreal hospital and the conflicted characters, who struggle with boundaries and relationships. The murder of a beloved doctor sets in motion a riveting narrative that takes many unexpected twists and turns. I continually second-guessed myself as I attempted to identify the murderer in this well-plotted, character-driven novel.Joanne Guidoccio, author of A Season for Killing Blondes
