Now Dennis must run for his life. Clearly, someone, somewhere, is a close match for him—and is powerful enough to steal Dennis's organs for transplant purposes. The next time, Dennis might lose his heart or lungs. He won't wake up after that . . .

Rivaling the best work of Robin Cook and Michael Crichton, The Donordrags the frightening reality of modern-day organ theft into the cold light of day.
