Robin Cook: Night Shift (USA 2023)

From the Publisher:
In this exhilarating new medical mystery-thriller by Robin Cook, fan favorites Jack and Laurie are lured into the dark underbelly of hospital dangers when an internist is murdered.

Colleagues-turned-spouses Dr. Laurie Montgomery and Dr. Jack Stapleton already have their plates full between demanding forensic pathology work and family pressures. The last thing they need is the sudden death of a colleague. Yet when Laurie's apparently vital and healthy longtime friend Dr. Sue Passero dies mysteriously in the hopsital parking garage, an autopsy is required, and it falls uncomfortably under Laurie's purview as the chief medical examiner. So when Laurie asks Jack to take special care with the case, he can hardly refuse.

With his curiosity sparked by an inconclusive autopsy, the indefatigable Jack is compelled to resolve the case at hand, and sets out to investigate on-site at Manhattan Memorial Hospital, even though it means blatantly defying the Office of Chief Medical Examiner's rules. What started out as an inquiry into Sue's tragic passing soon turns into a deadly and dangerous chess game between Jack and the clever and deranged killer, who might just administer another lethal blow if Jack isn't careful.

From the Publisher:
Twenty-three-year-old Michael 'Mitt' Fuller starts his surgical residency at the iconic Night Shift Hospital. With the pressure on, Mitt uses his secret sixth sense - a sensitivity to the non-physical - to his advantage.

Between the fatigue, stress and nerves, the first few days and nights of his surgical residency are tough ones. Then his patients begin to die from mysterious causes. Mitt struggles to find an explanation for the deaths, and things rapidly spiral out of control.

As bodies mount and Mitt's stress level rises, he finds himself drawn into the secrets of the abandoned Night Shift Psychopathic Hospital building, which defied demolition a few doors north of the modern Night Shift Hospital high-rise. Forcing an unauthorized entry into this looming structure, Mitt discovers he's more closely tied to the sins of the past than he ever thought possible.
