A New York Times BestsellerThis harrowing new bestseller by the master of medical thrillers combines the fast action of a nerve-jangling thriller with the medical possibilities that are Robin Cooks trademarks.When a notorious underworld figure, Carlo Franconi, is gunned down, his body is snatched from the city morgue before it can be autopsied. A few days later, a floater appears on Dr. Jack Stapletons autopsy table missing its head, hands, feet and liver. With the help of Dr. Laurie Montgomery, Jack IDs the body as that of Carlo Franconi. Was the triggerman who killed him the same person who later dismembered him? Jack and Lauries search leads them to equatorial Africa where they discover a sinister cabal whose stock-in-trade involves surgical procedures a step beyond current medical technology and a leap beyond accepted medical ethics. LCCN: 96053133 Although, this being the first edition with the cover as shown here, this book was later printed for a "Book Club," with a slightly different cover, using the same ISBN and having the same number of pages. The "Book Club" edition is noted by not having a printing number sequence or Library of Congress information on the publishing information page. See wikipedia and The Library of Congress for more information. ~
