Synopsis

A wealthy New York suburb full of anxious, overprescribed teens. Four unexplained teen deaths. A high school LGBTQ club locked in battle with a circle of conservative doctors. And one female physician who is determined to uncover the deadly truth.

In the wealthy seaside town of Oyster Heights, where appearances matter more than truth, a string of teen deaths shatters the quiet. Though the official ruling says no foul play was involved, Dr. Samantha Willoughby is certain the deaths are anything but accidental. As in so many other communities, the kids in her town are struggling under the challenges of social pressures, anxiety, depression, and questions of identity.

At a Kentucky Derby party, Samanatha meets the charismatic new high school chemistry teacher and an instant attraction sparks between them. While digging deeper for answers to the deaths, Samantha discovers that her new love interest and her boss share a dark and tangled history stretching back thirty years—and uncovers a disturbing pattern linking the four victims. Then high schooler Lexie Hennigan—Samantha’s son’s best friend, and a member of their school’s LGBTQ club—becomes the object of some vicious bullying and hate crimes, including having her house set on fire. With the stakes rising ever higher, Samantha races to expose a horrifying truth that her boss never wanted revealed.

Propulsive and multilayered, I Can Fix You is a gripping medical suspense about power, prejudice, deception, and the cost of hiding the truth.
