Description
In a world where medicine has been surrendered to soulless machines and profit-driven algorithms, one underground hospital dares to fight back. Beneath the crumbling bones of his family manor, Dr. Derek Delflower-the last heir to a legendary line of surgeons-runs a hidden trauma ward for those abandoned by the system. Haunted by legacy, burdened by secrets, and driven by a need to save what little humanity remains, Derek operates on the edge of exhaustion and obsession. At his side stands Finn Aprimin-his most brilliant surgeon and closest friend-sharp-tongued, unmatched in skill, and unraveling just enough to remind Derek what's at stake. But everything shifts when Derek saves the life of a rugged, street-hardened man tied to dangerous people. A man who-despite his own damage-arrives at just the right time to help the cause... and maybe something more. As the manor's walls close in, ghosts stir, and enemies inch closer, Derek must navigate loyalty, loss, and love in a war where every heartbeat counts. This isn't just medicine. It's defiance. And it's only just begun.
