Carol Mason, Director of Nursing, and her intrepid group of Black Angels are back in this sequel to Cal Clark’s eponymously titled debut novel. Shortly after they had defeated the forces of evil in the scandal plagued Elm Hill Psychiatric Hospital for Women, a new crisis arises and they are called back into action. Shady businessmen and the city’s underworld, aided and abetted by scheming nurses, a dirty cop and corrupt doctor, have hatched a conspiracy of mayhem and murder to take over the hospital. Both the setting and the period are important in this suspenseful and engaging mystery, and Cal Clark captures both. James Buford, Author of The Best of Times
