Forced to moonlight as a “mob doctor” in between carrying out her duties at a Chicago hospital, Grace Devlin (Jordana Spiro) is repeatedly confronted with twisty ethical dilemmas – such as being asked to kill off a man in the witness protection programme who comes to the hospital for surgery.

While leading this precarious double life, Devlin becomes unwittingly involved in a turf war between rival gangsters.

The Mob Doctor airs from Monday, 25 February at 20:50 on Sony Entertainment Television, channel 127 on DStv.
