New York Times-bestselling author Robin Cook returns with another ripped-from-the-headlines medical thriller, where DNA science, biotechnology, and religion collide. I ts been more than thirty years since New York City medical examiner Jack Stapletons college graduation and almost as long since hed been in touch with former classmates Shawn Doherty and Kevin Murray. Once a highly regarded ophthalmologist, Jacks career took a dramatic turn after a tragic accident that destroyed his family. But that, too, is very much in the past Jack has remarried-to longtime colleague and fellow medical examiner Laurie Montgomery-and is the father of a young child. But his renegade, activist personality cant rest, and after performing a postmortem on a young college student who had recently been treated by a chiropractor, Jack decides to explore alternative medicine.
