Maia is smoldering. College is not the career path she planned. COVID makes earning a living nearly impossible, and she'll do nearly anything to avoid sleeping on her mother's couch. Dr. Ben Lawson is three years into a medical residency, trying to keep his wife happy, and worrying about his kids. He's stuck between the hospital and the hotel during COVID, spring, 2020. What he learned in medical school didn't prepare him for this. Gabriela's loving grandmother, her only contact in America, just died from the new virus. Their apartment is being rented to someone else. She is now an orphan who needs street smarts. And for Dr. Ed Clarke, Attending Physician, COVID uncovers a past he didn't want to remember and a present struggling to recall the basics of medicine.
