“Master of the medical thriller.”—The New York Times
In his most prophetic thriller yet, Robin Cook goes behind the headlines on cloning and genetic manipulation, blending fact with fiction in this terrifying bestseller.
In the jungles of equatorial Africa, a biotechnology giant has taken transplant surgery and animal research to a new level—where one mistake could bridge the evolutionary gap between man and ape and forever change the genetic map of our existence.
Meanwhile, in New York City, Jack Stapleton and Laurie Montgomery are working on a seemingly unrelated murder of a mobster, only to find some very odd things once their victim is on the autopsy table...

I read this book in high school only 15 at the time the big works slowed me down until I started skipping them all together. The story grabbed me so tight I couldn't allow my vocabulary to slow me down. So the first time I read it was the most exciting. When I got the dictionary the second time it kind of scared me.

The king of the medical thriller brings us one of the most exciting books that he's ever written. This is one of his books that leans heavily into the science fiction genre, but the science described within is all too possible. I love the questions that this book raises more than I enjoyed the science itself. I highly recommend that you read this novel.
