When an Urban Legend becomes reality
Kenzie Kirsch had led a sheltered life; daughter of a wealthy lobbyist, her way had been paved for her, and she wasn’t really required to do much in life. There were events to make an appearance at, boards to sit on, fundraisers to support, but she could pick and choose what she wanted to do and how busy she wanted to be.
When she set out to find out why her sister Amanda was so ill, she had no idea where her amateur investigation would take her. Amanda’s illness had never been discussed. Amanda deserved her privacy.
As Kenzie’s questions take her deeper and deeper into the murky world of transplant tourism, Kenzie starts to wonder just what her parents have been covering up, and who else’s life might hang in the balance.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I enjoyed the fast pace of the story which kept me flipping pages late into the night. It is one of those books you just don’t want to put down until you have read the very last word. If you enjoy suspense, intrigue, family drama, spell-binding imagery and great character development, you will absolutely enjoy reading this book.

It was the nightmare she had imagined at the auction while talking to Dr. Proctor. The hospital cleared Amanda, saying that it had obviously just been a virus and she was fine as long as she just didn’t try to do too much too soon. She went home with Lisa and everybody was happy. And then sometime in the night, Amanda had suddenly taken another bad turn. Once more, she spiked a fever and was sluggish and unresponsive, complaining of hot and cold and that she hurt all over. Lisa again called an ambulance and had her taken in. She called MacKenzie in the night, startling her out of a sound sleep.
“I’m at my wits’ end, MacKenzie. I don’t know what’s wrong. She was just fine. Everything seemed to be just fine. And it isn’t like she did too much and tired herself out. She was just sleeping!”
“What do the doctors think?” MacKenzie asked groggily, trying to marshal her thoughts. “Are they still saying it’s just the flu?”
“Yes. I told them she was doing better; she was back to normal. But they’re saying it’s perfectly normal to have a relapse. I don’t know what to do!”
“Did you ask them to do any tests? Or to call Dr. Proctor? What about her nephrologist?”
“They’ll do all of the consults tomorrow… tonight there isn’t anyone available. Don’t people ever get sick during the night? Why aren’t any of these people in until morning?”
“I don’t know. I guess if they thought it was an emergency, they would get someone out of bed, so it’s good, isn’t it? It means that they don’t think it’s too serious.”
“But I do. This isn’t normal for Amanda. You know how she usually gets sick. This isn’t her usual pattern.”
