Description
After a crippling accident in Tibet, Roger Scully elects to have his brain transplanted into the body of a condemned Uyghur. He awakes as Wu Zicheng. He survives complications and begins a career as a Chinese surgeon, with a romantic partner. He reads the Boston Globe daily and watches Red Sox and Bruins games. His identity conflict leads him to return to the US, where he lands a prestigious academic post as Roger Scully and acquires an American girl friend. His luck changes when he is accused of being an imposter; the medical board has received a copy of the Chinese death certificate of Roger Scully. The reader is challenged to find a solution to his quandry to regain his identity.

Kathryn M, Reviewer
this was such a fascinating concept for a mystery novel, I really enjoyed the uniqueness of this book and that it was really well done. The story was what I was hoping for and was glad it had the tense atmosphere in what was what I expected from a thriller novel. The characters were great and it was really what I was hoping for. I look forward to reading more from Robert Wilson Morgan, MD.
“No way. They made it clear that there are no vacations in the first six months, and even funerals would only be two days off. If you can go, that’s fine. You need a break, and it’s something you have always wanted to do. Go for it.” From the tone of her response, Roger surmised that Lishan had no interest in trekking. Without further discussion, Zicheng decided to postpone any Tibetan adventure."
