From the New York Times bestselling master of medical thrillers comes a shocking story of medical conspiracy. Today, organ transplants are common miracles of science. But if the supply cannot meet the demand, how far will people go to find donors? Dr. Laurie Montgomery, a forensic pathologist, learns the terrifying answer when she investigates a series of fatal "overdose" of young professionals. Some crimes are beyond comprehension. But seeing is believing... With pulse-pounding suspense and a thought-provoking exploration of medical ethics, this gripping tale takes readers on a thrilling journey through the dark side of modern medicine.
I've been recommended Robin Cook before but this is the first time I've ever read one of his novels. I was pleasantly surprised. The book sucks you in from beginning to end. The foreshadowing's all there, but it really doesn't become apparent just what's going on until near the end of the book, so it always keeps you interested and guessing. The pages fly by with great action and character moments, and the characters themselves are fun to get involved with. Also, the book never gets bogged down in too much medical explanation. There's just enough to let the reader know what's going on, but you don't need a degree to understand what's being explained.

I found Blindsight to be a little different than, the typical Robin Cook book, if you know what i mean. THis was interesting enough to make me want to ready what other pathological mysteries would Laurie Montgomery have to solve. I could follow her forever. Great read, keep one is suspence, and i couldnt put it down.
Excellent book! A must read for all!

Ok, this book has parts where it goes from one section to another leaving you hanging on the edge wondering what will happen next. But you always have to read it the whole way through. It is an awesome thriller and it is somewhat a mystery. Mostly a suspense thriller. It also is kind of violent and I would recommend it to mature readers.
This was good!!

No matter what people say, it can't be denied that this book is a very good way to spend a few hours. I like Cook's style and I will read more of his once I get the chance. This is the second book of his that I read but certainly not the last. Keep them coming Dr. Cook, congratulations!
