De: Sandra Olson

Narrado por: Ayelet Sror

If someone you loved was dying, and you had it within your power to save them, would you? Even if it meant someone innocent had to die to do it?

That is the dilemma facing Dr. David Franklin. Elizabeth Franklin is dying of the same rare genetic brain disorder that killed her mother. He has the money and medical knowledge that could save her.

The life of an innocent infant hangs in the balance, as one nurse struggles to prevent Dr. Franklin from killing her to save Elizabeth.

When experimentation becomes murder, how much are we willing to excuse?

Medical Chiller and Thriller

This story will grab you quick and keep your turning pages till the wee hours of the morning! The characters are well developed, the narration is excellent, and the story line...well, it is scary and fascinating. As a tiny baby grows outside it's mother's womb and inside a fish tank converted to an artificial womb you will hold your breath at moments and applaud at others. As a long-time reader of Robin Cook, I whole heartedly recommend this book!

Very mesmerizing

Could stop listening last night in fact I listened till 2am this morning. Loved the story and the narration

Plot and intrigue

I enjoyed the overall plot of this book. It is action packed, has character development and there are plot twists. Don’t expect to hate the bad guys or love the good guys... no one is that two dimensional.

This book should come with a warning: very disturbing scenes about unborn babies, miscarriages and birth defects.

I would not recommend it to anyone affected by any of those elements as you will find they recur and cannot easily be skipped over.

I received this audiobook for free in exchange for a review.

good

this book was good, not great highly implausible. and some just silly situations. but intriguing and entertaining for a couple of days.

Unsettling but intriguing

I almost didn't finish this. I'm so glad I did.

At first I just couldn't get into it. I'm not really sure why. Perhaps I just wasn't in the right mood for it at the time. I stopped listening to it for a few weeks. I came back to it yesterday and decided to try listening to it. After a few more chapters I was pulled in and wanted to know what would happen.

The tale starts off sad and slightly twisted. Then it gets even sadder and horrifyingly twisted. The ending actually surprised me, which is rare. It wasn't what I was expecting but I liked it quite a bit.

The narration was not my favorite. I ended up speeding it up a bit, occasionally up to 2x speed. I just didn't enjoy it. I was tempted several times to return the audiobook and find the ebook. As with anything, everyone has their own preferences so don't let my opinion influence you too much.

All in all, I would recommend this book if you would enjoy an emotional, sometimes dark and twisted, book about experiments by a man spiraling into madness, the strength of a young girl fighting a battle with a debilitating disease, men that value money more than anything else, and people enduring the heartbreak of losing loved ones. It's definitely a roller coaster ride of a book.
