Plot Summary of Caduceus Awry
"Dr. Mark Valentine, once a highly-respected plastic surgeon, struggles to overcome alcoholism so that he can get his license to practice medicine reinstated. His life takes a turn for the worse when he is abducted at gunpoint from the Emergency Room at Charity and flown to a location hundreds of miles away. Subsequent events lead to him being pursued by a Jesus Dimaria, a vicious Mafia hit man. Mark manages to stay one step ahead of Jesus as he tries to identify Charity's serial killer in order to save the life of Dr. Ed Billingsworth, the only person with the power to help him get his license back.
