Night Mares by Manda Scott
Dr Nina Crawford of the University of Glasgow's Vet School - driven, fanatically dedicated, a survivor - is one of the most respected animal surgeons in the country. But now she seems to be losing her grip. On her operating theatre, on her skills - and on her mind. After routine operations, horses are dying of the highly infectious E. Coli endotoxaemia, and it seems the outbreak can't be stemmed. Under fierce scrutiny from those around her, Nina feels herself spiralling into suicidal depths. Her friend Kellen Stewart, heroine of Manda Scott's astonishing debut novel Hen's Teeth, is catapulted into Nina's dilemma when her own horse needs emergency surgery. And soon it becomes clear that not only horses' lives are on the line...
Manda Scott is a veterinary surgeon, writer and climber, not necessarily in that order. Born and educated in Scotland, she trained at the Glasgow Vet School and now lives in Suffolk. Her first novel, HEN'S TEETH, hailed by Fay Weldon as 'a new voice for a new world', was shortlisted for the 1997 Orange Prize.
