The story is good but the story is not one of the author’s. She is simply retelling what happened. It’s a fascinating story of ethics and disaster but it is so slow. I felt the ending in the epilogue could have been better. It didn’t feel “done”. I’m glad I read the book, learned about medical procedures in relation to disasters, and was able to ponder the ethical battle of medical assisted euthanasia. I would recommend this book to people who are genuinely interested in ethics, disaster research/response, and tough medical dilemmas.

Not a perfect book and could be dry, but gave me lots of information on an event I hadn't heard about before. I'm hoping to start nursing school in March and this book made me think a lot about someone's life, the field of medicine, and the ways the two can mix. I've mostly seen medicine favorably and I appreciated this bringing up arguments on the other side of that.
