*********************************************
ONE ROUTINE OPERATION. ONE HORRIFYING SECRET.
Toby Nelms is an ordinary 8-year-old boy who needs a routine operation. Everything seems to go well - the surgery is a success and Toby is sent home.
Months later, terror begins to take over Toby's life - he keeps on bursting into tortured screaming. He has begun to relive every moment of his operation - including the immense pain.
Neurosurgeon Zack Iverson must discover why the young boy is re-experiencing every detail of the operation.
Unsettlingly, Toby is not the only patient who is suffering this strange and horrific effect after surgery.
Iverson needs to get to the bottom of what is causing this, and find out the truth quickly, before another patient is wheeled into the Operating Room, to experience every slice of the scalpel's merciless blade for the rest of their life...
