I’m throwing the spotlight today on a Kate Downey medical mystery: Misfire.

Here’s the scoop:

The defibrillator implanted to save the life of Dr. Kate Downey’s beloved Aunt Irm has misfired in other patients with disastrous consequences. Efforts to protect those with the device are thwarted by its inventor, focused on the impending sale of his technology. When Kate’s cardiologist friend disappears and deaths mount, Kate and her colleagues uncover a larger plot of revenge and greed. Seemingly random events come together, the misfires are attacks, and Kate will stop at nothing to protect her aunt and the other patients whose life-saving devices could turn on them at any moment.
