He can give Cameron a new heart - not from a human, but from a pig! You're thirteen. All you want is a normal life. But most normal kids don't need heart transplants.So there's this doctor. He says there's a chance for you. But he also says it's experimental, controversial and risky. And it's never been done before.Shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal, this is a powerful, thought-provoking story from the award-winning Malorie Blackman.
