This is a medical mystery and a political thriller wrapped up in one. Extremely good book. I could not put it down. Outcome is surprising.

Slow start. Not sure about the "page turning" description. Current premise for our times, outside my normal whodunit. Would consider other books by this author as an alternative.
Margaretann B. (a chilling, harrowing medical thriller that will keep you turning pages!
Linda M. (This book is so complicated I can't really summarize it. It has many twists and turns; it's both legal and medical based; discusses prochoice and prolife viewpoints. I did not figure it out at all. It's long and complex but well worth the read.
Medical suspense .... was a little hard to get into, but after the first couple of chapters, I couldn't put it down. Lots of intricate details that reall add to the story!
