I think anyone who enjoys medical thrillers or conspiracy stories would really like this book. Orson Scott Card is usually considered a Sci-Fi writer, but this book doesn't have that feel to it. It's modern and a logical thought experiment into where current genetic technology could take us. No over the top romance either!

The description and beginning were intriguing but I don't think it followed through.

This book was bought to complement my 9th grade son's biology class. He passed it on to me, and i thought it was a really good read. The author weaves back and forth between what appears to be "evil" mad scientists who kidnap homeless people and others in order to cure their serious diseases (which leaves you question how evil they really are,) and over to an expert virologist who is recruited by a government agency to cure deadly viruses that they think were accidentally unleashed on the public.
