Dan Parker is a cardiovascular surgeon who has taken on an international chase for the holy grail of heart surgery, a self-contained implantable artificial heart. Dan's life is in jeopardy when he chases a corrupt Robert Krum from Austin, to the Mescalero Apache reservation, to an overpopulated city in India where illegal human heart transplants are being done, and then back to New Mexico. Excellent coverage of surgical procedures. The life of Dr. Dan Parker combined with intrigue and excitement of multiple life-threating predicaments are intense. The book reveals an insight into surgery, hospital politics, big pharma and insurance dominance so that it hardly seems like fiction. Will Dan Parker survive....
