The search for a reliable supply of transplantable organs produces some questionable procedures with unexpected results in this so-so medical thriller. Cook has an intriguing idea here, but the book just isn't very well written.

Not a great book. The characters seem thin and none to bright and with the line "omg a hippo" I could no longer take this book serious. The two main female characters may as well be barbie dolls and dont make any sense. They get shot at twice and shrug it off like its nothing but worry that there might be bugs on the ground. If your bored go ahead and read it but dont go out of your way to get this book.
