I read this book in a day, and I do not agree with the other reviewers. The book was not realistic. In one section, the main detective was slapping around a drug dealer tryibng to get information, and in another he and his partner were hurrying off to meet this dealer and they were eating hamburgers and drinking beer in the car. I was in total awe of the lack of forensics or even the mention of a computer and I would hate to think that drug use and smoking were that widespread in a hospital. It reminded me of fiction from the 50's and 60's. It just seemed silly to me. I guess I like my mysteries a bit darker and more believable.
