Genre: Mystery/Thriller
Gravity
Dr. Emma Watson and five other hand-picked astronauts are about to take part in the trip of a lifetime–studying living creatures in space. But an alien life form, found in the deepest crevices of the ocean floor, is accidentally brought aboard the shuttle Atlantis. This mutated alien life form makes the creatures in Aliens look like backyard pets.
Soon the crew are suffering severe stomach pains, violent convulsions, and eyes so bloodshot that a gallon of Murine wouldn’t help. Gerritsen brilliantly describes the difficulties of treating sick people inside a space module, and how the lack of gravity affects the process of taking blood and inserting a nasal tube. Dr. Watson does her best, but her colleagues die off one by one and the people at NASA don’t want to risk bringing the platform back to earth. Only Emma’s husband, a doctor/astronaut himself, refuses to give up on her. As we read along, eyes popping out of our heads, all that’s missing is one of those bland NASA voices saying, "Houston, we have a problem–we’re being attacked by tiny little creatures that are part human, part frog, and part mouse."
Harvest
Medical resident Dr. Abby Matteo is elated when the elite cardiac transplant team at Boston’s Bayside Hospital taps her as a potential recruit. But faced with a tormenting life-and-death decision, Abby helps direct a crash victim’s harvested heart to a dying teenager — instead of the wealthy older woman who was supposed to receive it. The repercussions leave Abby shaken and plagued with self-doubt. Suddenly, a new heart appears, and the woman’s transplant is completed. Then Abby makes a terrible discovery. The donor records have been falsified — the new heart has not come through the proper channels. Defying the hospital’s demands for silence, she begins her own investigation that reveals a murderous, unthinkable conspiracy. Every move Abby makes spawns a vicious backlash…and on a ship anchored in the waters of Boston harbor, the grisly truth lies waiting.
Life Support
Control was the word Dr Toby Harper lived by. She strove to keep her life in order, her ER in order. But no one could have been prepared for the man she admits one quiet night to the Springer Hospital. Delirious and in critical condition, he barely responds to treatment. And then he disappears without trace. The subsequent search leads Toby to a second patient with the same infection. And it reveals an unsettling twist – the infection can only be spread through direct tissue exchange. Soon Toby’s on a trail that winds from a pregnant sixteen-year-old prostitute to an unexpected tragedy in her own home. Only then does she discover the unthinkable: a terrifying and deadly epidemic is about to be unleashed …
