Host:
Robin Cook
Carolina's Mason-Dixon University, thinks she has her
life figured out. But when her otherwise healthy
boyfriend, Carl, enters the hospital for routine
surgery, her neatly ordered life is thrown into total
chaos. Carl fails to return to consciousness after the
procedure, and an MRI confirms brain death. Devastated
by Carl's condition, Lynn searches for answers.
Convinced there's more to the story than what the
authorities are willing to reveal, Lynn uses all her
resources at Mason-Dixon - including her initially
reluctant lab partner, Michael Pender - to hunt down
evidence of medical error or malpractice. What she
uncovers, however, is far more disturbing.

inner-city housing projects, a killer has crossed the
boundaries of wealth and race. And the people who are
chasing him must cross those boundaries, too. Among them

lover before she became his enemy. But unbeknownst to

loser ex-con who has stumbled upon the killer's trail in
the most coincidental of ways - and who may be the key
to breaking the case wide open.
