Sasha gets involved in an ethical quandary regarding informed consent for research subjects.
New parents to twins, Sasha and Leo have their lives full juggling the babies and her career while he is pretty much functioning as househusband and gofer. A new case for Sasha has her investigating a researcher at a nearby geriatric facility where some of the volunteers for a project may not have truly understood what they had originally agreed to do as one doctor pushes through her study on the brains of those with dementia. As for Leo, things take a sudden turn when his long lost father reaches out to him.
I must say this is my least favorite so far. Not sure why, but Sasha seemed particularly self-righteous and the couple seemed to have a glitch in their decision making in several areas. Her constant ability to disarm and handle every thug that comes her way is getting a little old and the fight scenes, described in great detail, are only a bit unbelievable.
I think it must have been the topics and subtext that got me all bent, but I am going to forge ahead in my reading binge of this series with #9.
Part of a series, that really should be read in order.
Genre - medicolegal thriller with ethics considerations
