Amazon Synopsis:
Dr Abby DiMatteo - a second-year surgical student in Boston Bayside's elite cardiac team - is about to make an anguished, crucial decision that will jeopardize her career. A car-crash victim's healthy heart is ready to be harvested, having been cross-matched to a private patient, forty-six year-old Nina Voss. Instead Abby and her fellow medic, Vivian Chao, hatch a bold plan to make sure the transplant goes to a dying seventeen-year-old boy who is also a perfect match. The repercussions are powerful and swift. Dr Chao resigns; and Abby is shaken but unrepentant - until she meets the frail, tormented Nina. Then a new heart for Nina Voss suddenly appears, the transplant is completed - and Abby makes a terrible discovery: Nina's heart has not come through the right channels. Defying Bayside Hospital's demands for silence, Abby, with Vivian Chao's help, plunges into an investigation that reveals an intricate and murderous chain of deceptions. Every move Abby makes spawns a vicious backlash. And, in a ship anchored in the stagnant waters of Boston Harbour, a final grisly discovery lies waiting ...
