Forensic nurse examiner at NYC's busiest hospital for assault and murder cases, Jewel Connor has a talent for getting late night assignments and sparring with the egotistical cop on her investigative team.

When her DA-friend turns up on the examining table, nearly dead, Jewel searches for an explanation while fighting haunting memories from the past. When she starts receiving threats, it doesn't take a forensic specialist to know she'll be next. Good thing she has a millionaire internet whiz husband and an attack dog to help her.

Based on the authors' experiences as a forensic nurse examiner and weapons renovation specialist.
