«Confessions of a Deathmaiden», Ruth Francisco
Мягкая обложка, 352 стр., хорошее состояние
Francisco's Los Angeles-based debut novel combines elements of the crime story with a strong supernatural plot thread. Protagonist Frances Oliver is a trained "death maiden," or someone who helps people let go and move on to the other side. When young Tomas, a terminally ill boy in Frances' care, is suddenly taken by paramedics to a hospital where his organs are harvested, Frances suspects foul play. Convinced that a biotech company is harvesting organs for profit, she follows the trail to Mexico, site of the Institute for Eternal Living, which is investigating her actions and may revoke her license as a death maiden. Francisco's prose is a bit flowery, but it is counteracted by plenty of suspense and a fascinating premise.
