Saving lives. Having a secure job. Earning good money. Tick, tick, tick, tick.\n\nBut now, in her second year in a city hospital, the reality is a world away from Amy's med school dreams. She is finding out that people don't always want to be 'helped', the pay barely covers rent, her hours are ridiculous, her favourite patients are getting sicker, and her surgical trainee boyfriend has recently gone shy on proposing.\n\nWhat Amy does have are the friendships forged by dealing with recalcitrant patients, endless night shifts, and crying in the emergency department bathrooms. And a belief that maybe, underneath it all, it's a job that's still worth doing.\n\nAnd when things begin to go wrong—horribly wrong—they're all that Amy has.
