What can I say? I love Robin Cooks writings and this is one of if not my favorite. I work in the health care field and so it is especially intriging to me since he is a doctor and states things medically correct. I got this book for my son who is deployed at this time and will send it and I know it will be a page turner for him. I love your service!!

One of his best works. Robin Cook
I enjoyed reading this book. The novel is trilling and entertaining to read. I love how author hooks his readers with yearning to find the answer to the medical problem. His advance knowledge in medical technology is surprising. It got me thinking of the possibilities of what technology can achieve in the near future ( animal-human transplant). Even if it is possible or has already been done.
