Fertile Ground
As she has skillfully done in her past novels Speak No Evil and Angel of Death, Rochelle Krich adeptly tackles another timely and often heated controversial issue, fertility procedures, within the framework of a twisting plot–in this her most heart-pounding and suspenseful novel to date. Scandal has shaken the life and career of Dr. Lisa Brockman, a staff physician at the prestigious Los Angeles fertility clinic that has come under fire for alleged egg switching. She is further rocked by the murder of a young egg donor, and by the mysterious disappearance of Dr. Matthew Gordon, the clinic’s founder and Lisa’s fiance. With her medical career in jeopardy, Lisa reassures her patients–especially an anxious Orthodox Jewish woman carrying twins–that the rumors are unfounded.
While an L. A. P. D. homicide detective probes the possible connection between the young woman’s murder and Matthew’s disappearance, Lisa–plagued by guilt because she doubts her feelings for Matthew and confused about her yearning to return to Orthodox observance–launches her own desperate search. In the face of allegations of fraud, misconduct and embezzlement, she unearths a complex labyrinth of greed, deceit and cover-ups beneath the distinguished veneer of one of the world’s most successful fertility clinics. As she closes in on the shocking truth behind the facility’s darkest secrets, Lisa realizes she cannot trust anyone for behind the facade of friendship might lurk the twisted soul of a diabolical killer.
With a fertility clinic in turmoil as her backdrop, Rochelle Krich masterfully juxtaposes the science of life–with the ultimate reality of death.
