Okay so my second read by Tess Gerritsen...good! A nice solid surgical/psychological thriller.
The synopsis:
Abby DiMatteo is in her second year as a surgical resident at Bayside Hospital in Boston when she is asked to join an elite cardiac transplant team. She is beyond thrilled. Everything in her life is on track: She's fullfilling the life-long dream of becoming a doctor, she's got an amzaing thoracic surgeon sharing her bed and she's making all the right moves in becoming a great doctor. Unfortunately, all that quickly changes when Abby makes a life-and-death decision to help a young teen receive a heart rather than a wealthy older woman (further down on the transplant list) - against her "teams" orders. Lawsuits and bizarre accusations follow that threaten her career. But suddenly, the older, wealthy woman gets a heart, the lawsuits are dropped and Abby is left mystefied. In taking the investigation in her own hands, she discovers a horrible truth.
A nice, fast-paced mystery that will keep you on your toes and turning the pages to the end. I really like Tess Gerritsen and look forward to reading more by her!
