Nothing can stop Caroline from investigating when a second death results in the arrest of the ER's nurse manager. Determined to clear her best friend, Caroline forms a strange pact with an aging Mafia boss, then calls on her buddies from the little town of Rhineburg for help in hunting down the killer.
As if murder isn't enough, charges of sexual harassment fly hot and heavy through the ER. Caroline must sort through a long list of suspects while coping with an irate cab driver, a litter of hungry puppies, a medical resident who can't stay on his feet, and a plastic bag full of very smelly dead fish. All this on top of a heat wave that turns the suburb of Niles, Illinois, on its ear.
It's enough to send most people scurrying for cover, but not Caroline Rhodes. The veteran ER nurse proves again that attention to detail is the key to solving any problem.
