A book that "A Civil Action" fans have been waiting for, "Damages" tells of a lawsuit brought by the distraught parents of twins--one stillborn and the other barely clinging to life.

At the urging of a friend, the Sabias filed a medical malpractice lawsuit against Dr. Humes and Norwalk Hospital. Barry Werth takes us through the seven-year lawsuit, allowing us to see the legal strategy plotted by the Sabias's attorneys, Connecticut's premier medical malpractice law firm.
