Used Book – Accidental Deaths, Robin Cook

If Robin Cook is considered the undisputed master of the medical thriller, it's because, over the years, this medical specialist has managed to weave topical subjects that concern us all – transplants, organ donation, genetics – into perfectly suspenseful scenarios.

Accidental Deaths takes us to India, where medical tourism is becoming one of the country's main assets. When CNN reveals that several seemingly routine operations have resulted in the deaths of Western patients, a Californian student is horrified to discover that her grandmother is among the victims. Determined to find out what happened, she travels to New Delhi to investigate, opening a formidable Pandora's box of local economics, corruption, and media manipulation.
