Dr. Elaine Edwards only wished to start her career as medical director of the Golden Shores Nursing Home, with the eagerness and compassion she had developed in medical school. Little did she know that she would be thrust into a world of drugs, mystery and death. Dr. Edwards finds herself an unlikely partner to a street-tough, retired New York City detective named Hank Monroe. Together, they set off to learn why his brother, and other residents at one of Long Island’s prestigious nursing homes, ended up suddenly dying. This is more than just a story about good versus evil: It is a story of compassion versus greed. Without Consent is not easy to put down once you start it.
