A Shot at Aaron: the Trials of Iliana Douglas E. Templin

Iliana Gosnov-an otherwise beauteous nurse, crippled with spastic monoplegia, due to her mother's low blood oxygen level during delivery-suffers with a severely dysfunctional leg and a terrible limp all her young life. She explores causes as an adult and is psychotically compelled to kill Aaron Concord, a claims investigator, who follows defense counsel's directive and toys with medical records to avert his client hospital's malpractice liability exposure. Follow along with the delusions, fantasies and her increasing ties with the local Russian mafia, while she weaves a self-destructive web to capture her dream of achieving satisfaction.
