Reviews"James Patterson's account of the twilight world between life and death that nurses inhabit is one of the most moving things I have ever read. In their own bullet-straight words, these heroes describe the pain, the love, and the brutally hard work of trying to save people's lives. I could not stop reading it and when I was done I felt like I was changed forever."-- Sebastian Junger, author of Freedom, Tribe, War, Fire, and The Perfect Storm, "James Patterson's account of the twilight world between life and death that nurses inhabit is one of the most moving things I have ever read.

  • True-life stories

    Very good book. Echo Heron wrote one similar many years ago - Tending Lives. When I saw that James Patterson co-wrote another of this type I looked for it right away and it is a great read! Still reading and planning on sharing when I'm finished. Excellent, true-life stories. You won't want to put it down.

  • Tough to read at times but so worth it,

    Every ER or critical care nurse should read this. It should be required for nursing school.
