Summary of Scott Carney's The Red Market

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 When Emily fell, she was weightless for a moment between the point where the upward momentum from her limbs was about to give way to gravity, and the point where her body would hit the ground. Her body was still hers, but her fate was sealed.

#2 I was asked to come to the hospital to identify the body of Emily, who had died of apparent suicide. Her home city of New Orleans was 85 miles away, and the first leg of the journey was across the parched and barren wastelands of rural India.

#3 In India, medical colleges are still operating on a feudal system, with the most mediocre doctors attracted to the job. The school where Emily died was established during colonial times when British bureaucrats ruled the land from beneath pith helmets.

#4 The reporters were here to cover the death of Emily, and they were not shy about asking questions or flashing their cameras at her body.
