Summary |
Maria Connolly, an emergency nurse from Preston, spends two weeks working at a hospital in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. Located on the American border, the city is at the centre of a drug war that has claimed more than 50,000 lives, and has one of the highest murder rates in the world. Working alongside local nurse Pablo Vasquez, Maria relies on basic equipment to treat a staggering number of patients suffering from gunshot injuries and stab wounds - and is shocked to discover the hospital has itself been the location of gun battles in the past.
