A missing patient is a hospital wards worst nightmare - until even more people disappear . . .
To Senior Midwife Lucy Ryuan, pregnancy is not an unusual condition, its her lifes work. But when two kidnappings and a vicious stabbing happen on her watch, her focus abruptly changes.
Something has to be done, and Lucy is fearless enough to try.
As rumours and accusations fly around Manhattan, Lucy teams up with a skeptical NYPD detective to solve the case. But the truth is far more twisted than either of them could ever have imagined.

Отзывы
Хороший детектив. Я такие называю "почитать на выходных". В родильном доме происходит череда странных событий: там пропадают пациенты. На помощь полиции приходит главная акушерка Люси Руэн, которая, если честно, иногда не очень-то и помогает. Для меня прочтение этой книги равно просмотру триллера: местами захватывающе, местами фантастика.
Плюсы
Хороший слог, много специализированной лексики (если есть желание увеличить словарный запас)
Минусы
Ну, если придираться, то слишком уж предсказуемо крутая главная героиня. Хотя это не минус, скорее, закон жанра
