A relentless, adrenaline-charged medical thriller…
In Kachick’s second installment in the Zachary Zander series, emergency physician and newly appointed Chief Medical Officer Zachary “ZZ” Zander finds himself on the front lines of a battle that extends far beyond the ER. Tasked with eliminating medical errors (“Never Episodes” as they’re ominously labeled by government agencies), ZZ soon realizes that someone is actively working to manufacture the catastrophic mistakes. As he fights to keep his hospital afloat, the threats become deeply personal, placing his family, colleagues, and even himself in the crosshairs of danger.
ZZ’s sharp cynicism and irreverence cover up a deeper frustration with the system’s failings, and his fight to stay true to his principles amid growing corruption is the heart of the story. His biting sarcasm and razor-sharp wit offer brief moments of levity amidst the unrelenting tension. The narrative expertly balances dark humor with heart-pounding suspense, twisting through a labyrinth of deception, danger, and moral dilemmas. As the stakes escalate, so does the novel’s breakneck pace, ensuring readers are hooked until the final, unexpected turn. Fast, fierce, and darkly funny.
