<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>How does a San Francisco transplant nurse who never takes drugs die of an opioid overdose in Miami? How does an eight-year-old boy avoid the ravages of dialysis and get a kidney transplant fast, and what does a high-ranking politician have to do with it? In Match these stories weave together into one suspenseful and sometimes humorous tale.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>What do politics, living donor kidney transplants, and the current opioid crisis all have in common? <br> Sarah Golden and Jackie Larsen, best friends since nursing school, could never have imagined that they'd end up as amateur sleuths searching to find a killer--for the second time! Jackie, a stay-at-home mom with marriage troubles, is racing the clock to get her young son, Wyatt, a living kidney donor to avoid the ravages of dialysis. Sarah, who has been living her career in the fast-paced world of organ transplantation, is helping expedite Wyatt's kidney transplant. Then a much-despised hospital colleague turns up dead of an opiate overdose--despite the fact that she'd never used drugs--and Sarah smells foul play. Her curiosity and tenacity pull Jackie, once again, into a life-and-death adventure that neither woman could have expected.<br> Armed with smarts, tenacity, big hearts, and their raucous senses of humor, the pair gets the help of a few colorful friends to pursue the killer and take on the mission in the only style they both know how: straight on and arm-in-arm as the friends they've always been.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"There is nothing better than a murder mystery that keeps you guessing right up until the very end, and <i>Match</i> does exactly that. I loved the way Peele accurately captured the complexity and beauty of paired-exchange transplantation while keeping the reader thoroughly entertained." --Carolyn Light, MPA, Executive Director of Transplant, UCSF "It is so refreshing and entertaining to read a mystery that accurately portrays kidney transplantation and the nuances of the paired-exchange process. A great read!" --Garet Hil, founder of the National Kidney Registry "When I first read <i>Cut</i>, I was hooked. Now, with her second book in this series, Match, I have renewed my Amy S. Peele fan club membership! <i>Match</i> will take you on a wild ride of friendship thrust into the world of donor transplants, politics, murder, and survival!" --Jane Ubell-Meyer, founder of Bedside Reading "In <i>Match</i> we are plunged back into the unshakable friendship of the characters we met in <i>Cut</i>. Peele offers a story that is straight from the heart and still manages to inform us about the world of organ transplantation. A warm and wonderful read." --Betsy Graziani Fasbinder, award-winning author of <i>Filling Her Shoes: A Memoir of an Inherited Family</i><br>
