A young doctor must come to terms with some of the greatest medical advances made in history. Dark truths are revealed in Bellevue, the gripping suspense-horror from New York Times bestselling author Robin Cook.
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.
