This book is one of the best I have read in years. The medical terminology makes it so real to life that you can't put it down. I read 250pgs in one day. You can tell Michael Palmer is dedicated to both lines of his work. He doesn't forget any detail. He keeps you on the edge of your seat wanting more and more. And his ability to go between characters is amazing. No wonder he is a top writer!

Another Palmer page-turner!
I could not put this book down! As usual, Michael Palmer's research on the book's venues such as Africa, Brazil and India made the book much more exciting. His medical facts are always factual and/or believable. The book was extremely interesting and yet disturbing. I could believe that these illegal transplants could actually be a reality now or in the near future. This book would make a great movie. I await Dr. Palmer's next novel with great expectation.
