Who wants Madeline Westfield dead? And why?

The Forensic Instincts team needs to find out who's targeting their client. Under the leadership of Casey Woods, the investigators have the resources to do just that, working inside the law–and outside it. Casey's associate, former Navy SEAL Marc Devereaux, is a man who's equal to any situation. Except maybe this one...

Because Madeline's the only woman Marc's ever loved–and his only weakness. Now a nurse at Manhattan Memorial, she's terrified. Her life is in danger, so she turns to him for help.

Manhattan Memorial is in turmoil. There's a merger in the works, and the staff is still haunted by their hospital administrator's sudden death–during heart surgery performed by Madeline's ex–husband, Conrad. A surgery at which Madeline was present.

With a growing list of suspects, Forensic Instincts will have to figure out who had the greatest motive to silence Madeline. And they'll have to do it fast.
