Movement off the Dime V. O'connell

An unlikely pair is conspiring to break a patient out of a locked unit at the famous Hunt-Fisher Hospital. Courtney Brentwood is involved. She is the daughter of two prominent New York physicians, just beginning her own promising career in medicine, and lovesick over a younger fellow medical student she left behind in Philadelphia. Nathan Bigelow, the mastermind behind the plot, is a talented underachiever she meets at the hospital, who cajoles her into abetting a scheme to help out his best friend. Movement Off The Dime tells the amusing and entertaining tale of two young people finding themselves, getting untracked in their lives, navigating their way through wide-ranging emotional terrain: career ambivalence, unrequited love, unsatisfied lust, devoted friendship and filial duty."I am recommending this engaging story to everyone I know-not just to those who work in and around hospitals or medical schools, but to anyone who enjoys a smart read."-Susan Tabor, Executive Director of Behavioral Health, Allina Health System.
