Lie Still

Combining the gritty accuracy of ER with the character complexity of a Scott Turow novel, here is a brilliant first novel of suspense from a 15-year veteran of the emergency room.

In a sleepy, small-town Arizona ER, an emotionally disturbed 13-year old named Henry Rojelio lies in a coma after suffering an inexplicable cardiac arrest. For surgery resident Malcolm Ishmail, the dimensions of the crisis are staggering--one minute, his patient is cracking jokes, and the next, he is as close to death as you can get. Yet it is not only Henry's life that's at stake. Months before, Dr. Ishmail had become involved in an exhausting affair with one of his professors, Dr. Mimi Lyle, a beautiful, charismatic brain surgeon who was subtly insufficient in the operating room. At great risk to his career, he exposed her failings to his superiors. Now, as 13-year old Henry Rojelio fights for his life, the young doctor wonders whether his former lover has exacted a disturbing revenge.
Rich in medical detail and providing a fascinating window into the frantic world of young medical residents,
Lie Still is a gripping, emotional drama of human failings and devastating consequences that marks the debut of a remarkable new voice.

Chapter One

Henry Rojelio, Day One

All she said was, "Doctor, he's turning blue." She spoke the words softly, quickly into my ear. I turned to look, expecting a grin. All I got, though, was backside, hurrying away to the exam bay, like a game of tag.

I've relived it a million times. It wasn't a game, it was a play. A stage whisper blurted by a vanishing actress. She knew her audience. She told me the patient was cyanotic -- cyan-colored, like ice -- but the delivery had its own message: I may be new here, but I'm not panicked. I've done this before; I'll do it again. On TV she would have stood up straight and tall in the center of the ER and ceremonially announced just short of a shout, "Doctor! The patient is acro-cyanotic. Come stat!" Writers love the word stat. Clinicians only use it when they're pissed off. Stat is Latin for "hurry the fuck up."

Anyway, that's how it started. Henry, Day One.
