April Christofferson is a very imaginative writer, right up there with Robin Cook. The story she weaves is action-packed while she takes you on a journey with scientists looking for precious DNA, through the jungles of the Amazon, with all of the dangers and downright scary predators lurking in every treetop, bush and river bottom. If you like medical thrillers, you will love this one.
