A Race Against Death — Timothy Sheard

In the midst of a brutal heatwave, the hospital workers at James Madison University Hospital are outraged by the death of a young woman from a botched abortion. They say the cold-blooded surgeon Dr. Odom is a murderer. But hospital bosses defend him, putting Lenny Moss in the middle of the most dangerous campaign of his career. As tempers flare and laundry workers pass out from the heat, a brutal murder sends Lenny down a dark path that threatens his job...and his life.
