About this listen

'Bold and compelling, with complex, memorable characters.' Mary Watson, author of The Cleaner

Two patients are fighting for their lives. Nina, the hospital nurse, reads their notes:

Leroy: stab wound, gang member, police escort.
Dev: stomach pain, artist, distraught mother.

Nina is meant to treat all her patients equally: not to pick favourites, and not to judge. Except tonight, understaffed and overstretched, both patients need her. She makes a split-second choice - and leaves one man to die.

And that's when she realises that on this busy hospital ward, no-one is exactly what they seem.

'Dark, profound and deeply thought provoking.' Lisa Timoney
