Harvest by Tess Gerritsen

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!
