About the Book

A dashing young physician and devoted husband, father, and son, Olu Adebo looks at his sky and finds every inch of it lined with silver-until new ambitions drive him to New York City. In the midst of the hustle and bustle of residency training, a needlestick from a patient with AIDS places Adebo face-to-face with his past history with the virus.

As his life begins to spin out of control, he succumbs to the strong attraction he feels for two best friends who do not appear to care about the symptoms he displays, symptoms he fears are due to the deadly virus. Adebo stands to lose everything that he has spent his entire life cultivating-his marriage, his children, and his very life.

Adebo's devoted friends rally and try to save him from himself. Will their coordinated efforts be enough to pull him back from the precipice, or will the ploy of a deadly virus, the secrets kept from his wife, and the poisonous love of two women prove to be too powerful?
