The plot is good. The writing is tight, but why why why does Cook find it necessary to introduce intersectionality into the novel? His characters are successful, at the top of their class and going into high level careers with the support of their institutions. They also are obsessed with everyone is sexist/racist/I'm a victim thinking, which successful people do not do! It doesn't move the plot it just makes the characters whiney and entitled. So Why?

What happens when innocent hospital patients are used as medical incubators against their will? A good medical thriller.
