Janwar
Gupta, a brilliant but neurotic medical student intern, has a patient
die under suspicious circumstances during his placement at the Ottawa
Civic Hospital. Certain of his innocence, Janwar bumbles his way through
an amateur investigation of two feuding groups of anaesthesiologists
and navigates a romance with journalism student and barista Susan
Jonestown, who is investigating a drug trafficking conspiracy involving
the Hells Angels and a network of dog walkers that leads back to
Janwar's colleagues at the hospital.
Featuring an ensemble cast of unscrupulous, high-strung, and hilarious characters, Death and the Intern twists and subverts the hospital drama and hard-boiled detective genres with equal parts humour and pathos.
"It's
a page-turning crime novel with a shot of dark comedy and enough
medical jargon to keep things interesting... A successful first novel
from Jeremy Hanson-Finger and great summer beach read."--Winnipeg Review
