NIGHTSHIFT​
The Cluster of Echoes: Book 1
​
Normally, you turn up at the hospital at 9PM and prepare to face whatever comes through the door. You’ve patched up gunshot wounds, plated broken bones and drained abscesses. Sometimes, you’ve spent the entire night watching TV, feeling bored and just willing the phone to ring. Waiting for something to happen…
But what if something did happen? What would you do if your ordinary routine just turned upside down?
In this adventure, you are not a hero. You’re just a hospital worker who’s caught up in the middle of your worst nightmare.
Will you be able to use your wits and survive?​​

When I revisited Nightshift, I found the long-lost remnants of the original novel. The rest has long been consigned to history but 13 pages survive! Please excuse the poor copy editing and atrocious police dialogue!

If you crave a little more exploring in the Nightshift, then you can either download the basic hospital floor plans or the complete map from Qatlas Map - full of spoilers but absolutely amazing!
