Read by Sunil Malhotra.
Marion and Shiva Stone are twin brothers born of a secret union between a beautiful Indian nun and a brash British surgeon at a mission hospital in Addis Ababa. Orphaned by their mother's death in childbirth and their father's disappearance, they are bound together by a preternatural connection and a shared fascination with medicine. Marion flees his homeland fresh out of medical school when he and his brother fall in love with the same woman. He goes to work in an underfunded New York hospital until his past catches up with him, nearly destroying him, and he must trust his life to his father and brother.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

disappointing submitted by 21621031390949 on July 6, 2011, 9:18am The first half of this book is interesting, but as so often happens, the author didn't know how to finish it. Contrived ending, too obvious and simplistic, not realistic.
