What happened was harrowing and heartbreaking. This book was well written. I did struggle to keep track of everyone -- patients, nurses, doctors, their families before police, lawyers and politicians who. I think this shows Fink did a lot of research. I think book afforded a good look at medical ethics and disaster preparedness.
