What have they done, with their amazing medical techniques, to save her?From the Paperback edition.
I first read this decades ago as a pre-teen and it absolutely stuck with me. Turns out, mostly the very beginning and very end, but the story between those visceral feelings of non-human connection is solid challenging ethically complex YA too.
