Publisher's summary

Grey's Anatomy meets Scrubs in this brilliant debut novel about a young doctor's struggle to survive residency, love, and life.

Having spent the last 20-something years with her nose in a textbook, brilliant and driven Norah Kapadia has just landed the medical residency of her dreams. But after a disastrous first day, she's ready to quit. Disgruntled patients, sleep deprivation, and her duty to be the "perfect Indian daughter" have her questioning her future as a doctor.

Enter chief resident Ethan Cantor. He's everything Norah aspires to be: respected by the attending physicians, calm during emergencies, and charismatic with his patients. And as he morphs from Norah's mentor to something more, it seems her luck is finally changing.

But when a fatal medical mistake is made, pulling Norah into a cover-up, she must decide how far she's willing to go to protect the secret. What if "doing no harm" means putting herself at risk?

Critic reviews

"This authentic, no-holds-barred novel based on a savage intern year, is gripping. Her navigating love - in the hospital and in her traditional Indian family - is touching, funny, and fraught. Welcome, author Madi Sinha, to the club of doctor/writers." (Samuel Shem, author of The House of God, The Spirit of the Place, and Man's 4th Best Hospital)

"An engrossing story featuring an endearing protagonist. Madi Sinha offers a compelling glimpse into the world of medicine and desi culture through Norah Kapadia, a witty, fierce, memorable character. As Norah navigates her personal and professional struggles, she may falter, but she's never defeated. Readers will delight in her self-discovery and development - both as a doctor and an individual." (Margarita Montimore, author of Oona Out of Order)

"Madi Sinha's witty, heartfelt novel navigates the worlds of medicine and South Asian culture. Readers everywhere will root for Norah Kapadia's compelling journey of self-discovery. Told with equal parts wit and warmth, this story beautifully explores ambition, romance, and identity." (Saumya Dave, author of Well-Behaved Indian Women)

Suspenseful and excellent

Amazing. I bought book bc I the the narrator, Soneela Nankani. But wow, what an amazing journey. I learned more about the behind the scenes of a doctor’s life. Some things that were bothersome but necessary. I immediately read her second title and loved it too. Madi Sinha is now an insta-buy.
