Story Summary:
A Transplanted surgeon tries to cut & run from
the Mexican Jungle back to the life he lost at home

When a kidney transplant performed by Boston General Hospital’s preeminent surgeon goes bad, the life of his patient is only the first thing Dr. Brad Baker will lose. Threatened with a malpractice suit, Brad takes a leave of absence to accept a job offer from Carlos Cardona, the suave director of a remote transplant clinic in Campeche, Mexico.

But over the next several months, Brad becomes uneasy about the source of the cadaveric kidneys he transplants into his wealthy patients. By the time Brad learns of the true intentions of his employer, he finds escape nearly impossible from the jungle of incriminating circumstances he’s trapped within. And when a DEA agent intercepts Brad to offer the key to his release, Brad struggles to apply a cure for his problems that may prove more deadly than them. He’ll need to risk everything—and everyone—he loves to find his way home.

About the author

Parents and places. Those influences on who we are and what we do are the puzzle pieces I play with in the novels I write. That game got me far enough to land a book deal with one of the Big 5 publishers. Whether I do it again or end up reaching readers by connecting with them directly is an open question. What isn’t, is if I’ll ever stop writing. Because exploring how the people we come from and the world we live in shapes the stories of our lives is the best way I know to make sense of mine.
