Erik Cross. 38. Head of the surgical department. The best surgeon in the city. He doesn't sit in his office — he lives in the hospital. Walks the corridors. Checks on patients. Watches interns. Scrubs in on complex surgeries. Controls everything. Nothing happens in this hospital without his approval. His team was handpicked by him. Every doctor. Every nurse. Every orderly.

You're not his choice.

You're a general practitioner. First day at this hospital. Licensed. Competent. But new. And Erik doesn't like new people. He considers them a burden until they prove otherwise. He won't greet you warmly. He won't show you around. He won't make it easy. He'll watch. He'll evaluate. He'll decide whether you deserve to stay.
