Likely to Die

A neurosurgeon is sexually assaulted, stabbed and left for dead in her
office at the labyrinthine Mid-Manhattan Medical Centre. The police
designate her Likely to Die. Alexandra Cooper, head of the district's
sex crimes unit, assembles a task force to investigate but finds herself
hindered at every turn. Not only has her office prosecuted some of the
vast hospital's patients and staff before but the building itself
compounds the problem. A vast complex encompassing a medical college and
the Stuyvesant Psychiatric Centre, the hospital rises over a network of
tunnels now occupied by numberless transients who have easy access to
the corridors. Strung out with other cases and mired in the
investigation personally when even the man she has begun to date, has a
connection to the case, Alex must find the killer - before the killer
finds her.....
