Book Pleasures Review
…The narrative triumphs as both a mystery and a reminder that the pharmaceutical industry, one of the largest and wealthiest industries, can be culpable of unethical clinical trials. Sometimes, data is falsified. Protocol is thrown out the window, and researchers manipulate their findings. As a result, the results are distorted. When identified, it may be too late to remedy the damage caused to patients who have been harmed and robbed of quality healthcare…

Of Transplants and Thrillers with Amy S. Peele

Amazon Five-Star Review I loved this book! By page two someone was dead and we were off to the races! MATCH is a gripping story about the hectic world of coordinating the life and death decisions and procedures around organ transplantation as well as the challenging world for detectives who are no one’s friend until they’re needed. It is fun, but not necessary, to have read the previous book and it’s great to see the deep friendship between two of the main characters continuing. I can’t wait for their return!

Cozy Mystery Book Reviews

If you read Cut, the first book in the Medical Murder Mystery series by Amy S, Peele you know that you will be on the edge of your seat reading any book by Peele…..and Match measures up to that nicely !  But if you didn’t read Cut, that is fine, you will have no problem getting engrossed in the story and falling in love with it all !!

 

Engaging, evocative , exciting, enigmatic and ENTERTAINING!

MATCH is a thoroughly entertaining read from the first page! Amy takes us through the numerous unimaginable challenges of the complicated donor world. She does so through the eyes of the scholarly, dedicated and compassionate professionals using her indisputable knowledge and her infectious uncanny HUMOR!! This medical murder mystery is filled with irresistible page turning suspense, excitement and HUMOR! Can not wait for the next book of this “requested” trilogy!

The US Review of Books

Dramatic, accessible, and suspenseful, this book holds the thrills and medical insight of a Robin Cook novel and the mystique of Michael Crichton’s best. Obviously well-researched, the narrative gives readers an insight into the complications, dangers, and legalities of the medical transplant industry. Simultaneously, the book’s thrilling plot takes readers coast to coast from Miami to San Francisco on a whirlwind crime-thriller adventure. Because chapters alternate character points of view, just when readers anticipate one outcome, a completely different one emerges. Characters like Biker Bob intrigue readers because of their unique personas, while Sarah Golden becomes a lighthouse for humanity. Fast-paced and intelligent, this page-turner is sure to become a quick favorite for fans of medical mysteries and medical thrillers.

The action starts on page one. The pace is maintained throughout the book. There’s no slowing down to launch into lengthy descriptions. Every word counts. The characters are well drawn. Amy Peele draws on her extensive knowledge of the organ transplant sphere without putting in too much science. The ending is carefully crafted. I’ve also read Cut, the first book, and can’t wait for the third one.

Intriguing, Entertaining and Educational All Rolled Into One

I’m not much for who-done-it books or cop/hospital TV shows because of the gory images that stay planted in my head. So, how refreshing to have storyteller Amy Peele create a riveting, entertaining mystery that involves both hospitals and cops that I could safely read before bedtime! Brava! What’s more, I learned a lot about the world of organ donation and transplant in an easily digestible way. Can’t wait to pass it along to friends and get the first of the series, Cut, to get some backstory on BFFs Sarah and Jackie.

Goodreads Review of CUT

Extremely adventurous! This book was filled with great characters and a wonderful plot. … a definite page-turner, and it brought the reader on a journey of intrigue and mystery, as Jackie and Sarah are in the middle of corrupt organ transplants. It’s a dangerous and wild journey for these two nurses, and I thoroughly enjoyed it … I look forward to reading more stories.

Books of All Kinds Review

When I was asked to review this medical mystery novel I instantly agreed as it is such an intriguing topic which I know so little about, and I wondered how the story would play out. And boy am I glad I did because CUT by Amy S. Peele is an expertly researched, well-paced novel with plenty of twists and witty dialogue along the way to keep the reader’s attention throughout…

San Francisco Book Review

Book Passage in Marin County’s Corte Madera was the site for Amy S. Peele’s comic and compassionate introduction of her debut novel, Cut, to a crowd of nearly one hundred people last month. Standing-room-only is rare at any book launch, but Peele’s was marked by eager cheers, a rousing introduction by author Betsy Graziani Fasbinder, hilarious readings, and a crash course in the mysterious world of human organ transplantation.

Books From Dusk Till Dawn Review

This is the first book in a planned trilogy of ‘medical murder mysteries with a mission’ and if this one is anything to go by it is going to be a cracking series. It has been written with passion on a subject that is close to the author’s heart.

Chanticleer Book Reviews

With heart, compassion, and a dash of comic relief, Amy Peele’s engaging murder mystery takes us into the precarious realm of human organ transplantation. Here, as life-saving procedures become marred by money, social status, and criminal intent, a moral compass spins out of control, revealing just how far some will go to reach the top of the donor procurement platform.
