Think you have the solution to NHS funding shortfalls? Think again. John lands in the middle of the problem when he's stretchered into A&E at NHS Trust Terminal Five, sponsored by Volvo. After being pulled from a river, he can't recall if he was pushed, fell, or jumped. Why did he leave his lover, Megan, and make such a reckless choice?Once inside the hospital, John discovers a world where patients unfit for purpose are in trouble, and hospital staff-including suspiciously glassy-eyed nursing assistants-seem to have sinister roles. There's even a rock band, The Day Trippers, for entertainment. In trying to save the hospital from government bailiffs, resuscitation takes on an unsettling, creative twist.Burdick's surreal, shocking, and darkly funny novel takes a satirical dive into the future of healthcare, where survival of the fittest is taken literally. You've been warned-this isn't your usual hospital drama.
