About the book

Perfect People is a compelling and thought-provoking thriller from bestselling author Peter James.

It's every parent's worst nightmare . . .

John and Naomi are grieving the death of their four-year-old son from a rare genetic disorder. They desperately want another child, but when they find out they are both carriers of a rogue gene, they realize the odds of their next child contracting the same disease are very high.

Then they hear about geneticist Doctor Leo Dettore. He has methods that can spare them the heartache of ever losing another child to any disease - even if his methods cost more than they can afford. But surely a healthy child is worth all the money in the world?

His clinic is where their nightmare begins.

They should have realized that something was wrong when they saw the list. Choices of eye colour, hair, sporting abilities. They can literally design their child. Is this what they really wanted? Now it's too late to turn back. Naomi is pregnant, and already she knows something is very wrong. . .

    Eins der schlechtesten Bücher die ich je gelesen habe. Zu weit hergeholt. Flop des Jahres. Note: 6

    Wow

    Das hätte ich nicht erwartet. Am Anfang brauchte es etwas, aber dann hat die Story Gas gegeben. Spannend bis zum Schluss. Ganz kleine Abschnitt zogen sich etwas aber das war nicht weiter schlimm. Eine Story über Genmanipulation die teilweise gruselige Abschnitte hatte. Wirklich zu empfehlen.
