Tipico medical thriller imperniato sul traffico internazionale di organi, come sempre alimentato dall'avidità umana, tra ricchi che pensano che il denaro possa pagare la vita e medici, tipicamente americani, facili prede di un sistema che li riempie di soldi dopo che per studiare si sono indebitati fino al collo.
I personaggi sono abbastanza stereotipati, tranne in piccolo orfano russo Jacov, che emerge per la sua mente limpida e la capacità di distinguere il bene dal male, fino ad ergersi a vero protagonista del romanzo.
Buona lettura per una giornta grigia.

Really enjoyed this book. A fine fast paced, page turner, which keeps you on the edge of your seat. Pulls at the heart strings in the right places, especially with the children involved.
Read the author many years ago but will definitely read more of her work after this book.

Decent medical drama. As an ER fan I just kept picturing the main character Abby as Maura Tierney. It left a few questions in my mind at the end but overall I enjoyed it.

Pretty decent medical thriller. Somewhat predictable at times, but I liked the characters and the suspense was well-paced.
