Tess Gerritsen: Harvest


Trss Gerritsen started her career as an author with a string of romantic suspense novels; she later switched to writing medical thrillers, drawing on her own experience as a physician, before beginning her highly successful crime/mystery novels featuring police officer Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles. Harvest was the first of her medical thrillers, with a plot centred around a second year surgical resident who uncovers a series of mysterious heart transplants using untraceable donors have been taking place in the hospital she works in - and that the people responsible will go to ant lengths to discredit, or if necessary, silence her.

A fast-paced read, with the requisite surprise plot twists and a just-in-the-nick-of-time resolution. And there's even a touch of romance.
