"Chromosome 6" is a
science thriller about some scientists in Africa that are using cloning to
create subhuman monkeys using bonobos so that their body parts can harvested
for the specific human who is matched with the animal, and about a medical examiner
named Jack Stapleton who discovers at the morgue in New York City while working
that something strange is going on. He notices during an autopsy that a man had
had a liver transplant but for some reason he has trouble finding out where and
when and also the man didn't need anti - immunity drugs, in other words the
body did not try to reject the liver. Jack digs deep to find the answer and the
two plots finally connect. I felt I was educated as I read the book, it was very well detailed with
scientific and medical information, but not boring, book keeps a good pace. An exciting read.
