Summary
He knows the secret, she knows the truth....
“The list. You’re on the list. God’s chosen Gene.”
When children’s hospital volunteer and high-school student Gene Adamson hears the words of the dying man, the gunman who used him as a shield after murdering a prominent geneticist, Gene thinks the man delirious. But then the bodies of killer and victim disappear from the morgue, and a 10-year-old girl desperately needing a heart transplant is mysteriously bumped from her number-one spot on the organ-recipient list.
The list. What is the list? Gene, together with Jeanne Everston, the beautiful daughter of the murdered geneticist, appears to have stumbled onto a medical conspiracy so deadly the very knowledge of its existence marks them for death.
As a child’s life hangs in the balance, Gene believes he’s discovered the answer. He thinks he’s cracked the conspiracy wide open. He is so wrong.
Critic reviews
“The suspense builds to a brilliant conclusion….This work is storytelling at its best, totally drawing you into every event happening….A great read, I give it a high recommendation.” (Midwest Book Review)
