Product Description
Set in a once-renowned hospital now struggling with underfunding and overwork, Midnight Rounds follows the intertwined lives of nurses, surgeons, interns, and long-term patients over 21 days. Every day brings new medical emergencies—but also bizarre, inexplicable events: patients who see their future deaths, staff members who momentarily experience the lives of those they treat, surgical tools that vanish mid-operation, and a ghostly figure who appears in trauma rooms moments before a life-or-death decision must be made.
At the heart of the story is Dr. Elara Quinn, a trauma surgeon with a crumbling marriage and suppressed trauma from losing a patient years ago. She leads a team of exhausted residents, cynical nurses, and overburdened janitorial staff—all of whom begin suffering from shared hallucinations, strange time lapses, and emotional crossovers between patients and staff. A child in a coma starts whispering secrets about the staff’s darkest memories. An Alzheimer’s patient sketches detailed images of future surgeries before they happen.
Each chapter follows a single day—blending realistic surgeries, interpersonal drama, relationship breakdowns, emotional breakthroughs, and supernatural phenomena. The lines between sleep deprivation, guilt, and something beyond human comprehension begin to blur.
