CHAPTER 2: The Hidden Damage
By midnight, the hospital was no longer the same place.
Audits began.
Departments were locked down.
Records that hadn’t been touched in years were suddenly under scrutiny.

Unreported complications.
Patients quietly transferred instead of treated.
Mistakes buried under signatures and silence.

And narratives…
Are far more dangerous than power.
Because people believe them.
Even when they shouldn’t.
Mia became the first official case reopened.
