Description
Twenty-four-year-old Michael 'Mitt' Fuller starts his surgical residency at the iconic Bellevue Hospital. With the pressure on, Mitt uses his secret sixth sense - a sensitivity to the nonphysical - to his advantage.
Between the fatigue, stress and nerves, the first few days and nights of his surgical residency are tough ones. Then his patients begin to die from mysterious causes. Mitt struggles to find the cause of the deaths, but things rapidly spiral out of control.
As bodies mount and Mitt's stress level rises, he finds himself drawn into the secrets of the abandoned Bellevue Psychopathic Hospital building - having defied demolition a few doors north of the modern Bellevue Hospital high-rise. Forcing an unauthorized entry into this storied but scary structure, Mitt discovers he's more closely tied to the sins of the past than he ever thought possible . . .
'You'll find yourself completely hooked' - Daily Mail
'Robin Cook virtually invented the medical thriller' - The Guardian
'Fiction, at its best, is pure entertainment. But Cook, like Michael Crichton, offers readers a smart dissection of contemporary issues that affect us all' - USA Today

Ich habe vor Jahrzehnten Koma gelesen und war sehr begeistert. Das hier ist anders, das geht schon aus dem Klappentext hervor. Es wird mysteriös und übersinnlich, weswegen ich das Buch nicht als einen medizinischen Thriller sehen würde. Es ist eher eine Geistergeschichte im medizinischen Umfeld. Leider ist der Einstieg in die eigentliche Geschichte recht zäh und der Verlauf ist erwartbar. Interessant sind aber die Ausflüge in die Medizingeschichte und in den medizinischen Alltag als Frischling.
