Graveyard Shift at St. Jude’s

di Marek Thorne (Autore)

Marek Thorne, 2026

Dr. Harper Evans traded her Manhattan penthouse for a subterranean bunker in Chicago. Exiled in disgrace, she is now the newest surgeon at St. Jude's—a clandestine hospital treating the city's supernatural underworld. Her patients are seven-hundred-pound gargoyles with shattered wings, suffocating mer-folk, and banshees with calcifying vocal cords. Harper trusts physics and load-bearing bones, not fairy dust. But when a terrifying new epidemic sweeps through the wards, physics might not be enough to save them. Administrator Vance isn't just cutting costs; he's deploying the "Mundane Strain," a weaponized retrovirus pumped through the ventilation system. Designed to genetically overwrite magical beings into ordinary, compliant humans, it isn't a cure—it's an erasure of entire species. As the wards go into violent lockdown, Harper must team up with Kael, a fiercely loyal Minotaur orderly, and Dr. Julian Thorne, a cynical, three-hundred-year-old vampire surgeon who is rapidly losing his immortality to the virus. Armed with surgical steel, liquid nitrogen, and a desperate cure synthesized from werewolf marrow, Harper plunges into the dark arteries of Chicago's sewer system to stop Vance from aerosolizing the city's water supply. Hunted by the hospital Board's heavily armed "Sanitization Squads," Harper must choose: let the supernatural world be quietly lobotomized into myth, or risk everything to let the monsters keep their fangs. Graveyard Shift at St. Jude's is a pulse-pounding urban fantasy thriller where the most dangerous monsters aren't the ones on the operating table—they're the ones running the hospital.
