This short story gets going from page one all the way to the end. When Dr. Zora helps a stranger while on a short vacation in Mexico it could be the last thing she does as a doctor. Now her life is danger! Can she survive long enough to return home? You will need to read this book to find out. I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of this book. This is my own opinion of it.
