I often had to remind myself that this book was not written by a teenage girl, but instead by an older man. The story of a family who's lives are turned upside down when an accident on Sept. 11th, 2001 is captivating. The accident is slowly revealed as the main character attempts to deal with her emotions, her guilt and her family that is falling apart. A great story and a quick read. I am looking forward to more from this author. -$

In case you are going "Under the Knife"

Fascinating book! It pried open my eyes and freaked me out all too often.

We all assume surgeons are absolutely qualified to cut you open and have that kind of skill and confidence required to put your life in their hands. Guess again. We are often lab rats.

I work at Cottage Hospital in SB and I'll look at our surgical residents differently now: with a mixture of awe and some pity thrown in.

Like the Kitchen Confidential of what it is to be a young surgeon. And, by the way, superb writing by the author/surgeon himself.

That's all I'll say, just check it out and read it.
