Notes

Description
Jennifer Hernandez is a medical student who hears a news report on medical tourism: first-world citizens traveling to third-world countries for surgery. Then she hears her grandmother's name: Maria Hernandez has died after a hip replacement in New Delhi. That Maria traveled to India is a shock to Jennifer, until she realizes it was the only viable option for the uninsured woman. Jennifer heads to India and presses for more information. With two more unexplained deaths and pressure from the hospital for hasty cremations, Jennifer reaches out to her mentor, medical examiner Dr. Laurie Montgomery.
