In his latest medical thriller author Allan Zelinger presents you with a very unusual theft.
The three-ounce bags of frozen cord blood don't look like much, but for one young boy, they represent the best chance for survival. Jake Phelps may be the son of one of the richest men in America, but wealth can't protect him from the disease ravaging his body. His doctors know that these frozen bags of cord blood hold the life-sustaining stem cells that are the last hope of a cure for Jake's leukemia.
Disaster strikes when the cord blood is stolen. Someone knows that this blood is the young boy's lifeline-and they want to know how much Jake's father will pay to save his son. The bags are held hostage for a king's ransom of $8 million, but it doesn't stop there.
Boston PD lieutenant Vince Monroe is on the case and he begins to suspect that the thieves may be hiding in plain sight. There are secrets lurking in every corner of Boston General Hospital, and Vince knows he will have to uncover them all to find the real culprits and save a young boy's life.
