    About this ebook

    A black-market organ dealer risks everything for redemption in a crime thriller that takes readers inside “the whole sordid business . . . a real eye-opener” (Publishers Weekly).

    Jack Trayner is a black-market organ dealer, known in the criminal underworld as New York Jack. Though many consider his line of work horrendous, there are some—especially those in dire need of his services—who consider it heroic. But after years of “selling life,” Jack is finally losing his stomach for the business. This is his full confession.

    Jack’s life of crime started in the late eighties, selling coke to help get through college. After graduating from law school, the lure of easy money drew him into the illegal organ trade. But now, an unexpected friendship and a chance at love have Jack questioning his choices. And when one of his clients dies, he must face the grim reality of his business. In a last-ditch attempt at redemption, Jack must try to stop a job that would have been his biggest sale ever—and save a would-be donor from murder.

      This very interesting tale follows a black market organ dealer as he decides if two million dollars is worth one last HUGE organ harvest. It will involve the ultimate sacrifice by the potential donor though. Is this crossing the line? Can murder be justified if it saves another's life?The novel does a great job describing the chain of command in order to provide the wealthy with the organ transplant they need; from the thinly veiled ad in the classifieds to the third world transplant centers that profit richly from these transactions. It's hard to believe this type of transaction goes on everyday.
