Twenty-eight-year-old Sean McGillin is the picture of health until he fractures his leg while in-line skating in New York City's Central Park. Within twenty-four hours of his surgery he dies. A thirty-six-year-old mother Darlene Morgan has knee surgery to repair a torn ligament in her knee. And within twenty-four hours she has died. New York City medical examiners Dr. Laurie Montgomery and Dr. Jack Stapleton are back in Robin Cook's electrifying twenty-fifth novel. Last seen in Vector the doctors confront a series of puzzling hospital deaths of young healthy people after successful routine surgery. Despite institutional resistance from her superiors as well as from those at Manhattan General Laurie doggedly pursues the investigation. Though it seems impossible to determine why and how the patients are dying she comes to suspect that not only are the deaths related-they're intentional suggesting the work of a remarkably clever serial killer with a very unusual motive involving frightening ties to both developing genomic medicine and the economics of modern-day health care. Then Laurie is dealt a double blow: While coping with Jack's inability to commit to their relationship she discovers she carries a genetic marker for a breast-cancer gene. As her personal life continues to unravel the need for answers becomes more urgent especially when Laurie is pulled into the nightmare as a potential victim herself. With time winding down she and Jack race to connect the dots-and save Laurie's life. With his signature blend of suspense and science Robin Cook delivers an electrifying page-turner as vivid as today's headlines.</p> Putnam Adult hardcover

That is until she ends up on Dr. Jack Stapleton's autopsy table where Jack discovers something eerily fishy: First that the young woman has had a heart transplant and second that her DNA matches that of the transplanted heart. Strangely two more incidences of young people with this same sudden and rapid illness follow and Jack fears that this could be the start of an unprecedented pandemic. But the facts aren't adding up. Something is off about these cases something creepy and only Jack can figure it out before it's too late.Thus begins a race against time during which Jack unveils the dark underbelly of the organ-transplant market. His name is Bui Zhao a businessman and hospital board member who has been cheating the system by using organs and cells from chimeric pigs via the gene-editing biotechnology CRISPER/CAS9 which allows pig genes to be inserted into living human cells. In a climactic mortal showdown Jack must face Zhao the megalomaniac willing to risk the fate of the world to purse his commercial interests if he wants to save the future of medicine.</p> Penguin Audio hardcover

Pan Macmillan 2004. Hardcover. New/New. <p><strong>Author:</strong> Robin Cook</p><p><strong>Publisher:</strong> Pan Macmillan</p><p><strong>Binding:</strong> Hardcover</p><p><strong>ISBN:</strong> 9780330483063</p><p><strong>Release Date:</strong> 2004</p><p><strong>Number Of Pages:</strong> 560</p><p><strong>Details:</strong> What could the Shroud of Turin a conservative Southern senator and an entrepreneurial researcher have in common Here politics religion and bioscience collide in the latest novel from the master of the medical thriller. Senator Ashley Butler is a quintessential demagogue whose support of traditional American values includes a knee-jerk reaction against virtually all biotechnologies. When he's called on to chair a sub-committee introducing legislation to ban new cloning technology the senator views it as a keystone to his political future. As a consequence Dr Daniel Lowell - inventor of a technique that will take stem-cell research up to the next level - sees a barrier being raised before his biotech start-up. These seemingly opposite personalities may clash during the Senate hearings yet the two men share a common failing. Butler's hunger for political power far outstrips his genuine concern for the unborn; while Lowell's pursuit of massive personal wealth and celebrity overrides any real considerations for his patients' well-being. Further complicating their confrontation is the confidential news that Senator Butler has developed Parkinson's disease - which leads the senator and the researcher into a Faustian pact. But in attempting to utilise Lowell's new technology prematurely the therapy leaves the senator with the horrifying effects of temporal lobe epilepsy - causing seizures of the bizarrest order. Taken straight out of tomorrow's headlines "Seizure" is a cautionary tale for this age when new biotechnological discoveries are pulling us ever further into a promising yet frightening new world.</p> Pan Macmillan hardcover
