“Every Third Night” is an eye-opening yet poignant story that is
set in a busy, dehumanizing and unyielding New York City residency program
in Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1984. It brings the reader into the real
world of medicine at a time of limited supervision and brutal duty hours
through the vantage points of young physicians enduring stressful conflicts
and volatile relationships.

Protagonist and chief resident Jimmy Zito seemingly has it all- brilliant
clinical skills, handsome, a talented teacher, and a gorgeous girlfriend to
boot- but a troubled past and a rash of new conflicts leave him struggling
to survive in this, his last month of training. He desperately tries to
guide his fellow residents through their own personal traumas, but is not
nearly as well equipped to handle the pressure as others might think,
especially considering the toxic and exhaustive work schedule, unchecked
aberrant behavior of attending physicians, and the highly competitive and
emotional demands of Ob-Gyn.

Intern Henry Deluca grapples with the consequences of a horrific surgical
complication that he feels responsible for. Co-chief resident Greta
Greenberg struggles with her personal dilemma in a busy abortion clinic.
Best friend Mike O’Rourke is driven to madness by an unreasonable superior’s
callousness concerning a dying patient with ovarian cancer. And Kim Clark,
Jimmy’s occult but obvious love interest, is at wits end after constantly
being tortured by her sadistic Chairman. Jimmy’s ultra-needy girlfriend and
stubborn father do not make things any easier. The intertwined subplots all
mesh together and come crashing down when an unexpected, dramatic and
haunting mishap leaves the program reeling and Jimmy’s life forever
transformed.
