I had to buy this book twice, because I lost my first copy after I’d only read a third of it. I’m glad I did!

I loved this book!!! There were so many layers to this - the history, the relationships, and the details of the world of medicine. I could read the book for a second time just to re-read the beautiful descriptions. I wanted to rush to read through the story since the plot was so compelling that at times it was hard to soak in the beauty of his writing. WOW - They say write what you know.... and boy did the author deliver.
