I'd give this a 2 because it's waaaay too creepy! Like watching one of those 60s horror flicks at midnight when you were a kid, and you had your body stretched out as far as you could go towards the bed and still have enough finger on the light switch to turn it off and dive under the covers before the horrors under the bed grabbed your leg, creepy. And not the creature in [a:Piers Anthony 8516 Piers Anthony https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1661821937p2/8516.jpg]'s Xanth series that makes a little girl giggle when it takes a playful swipe at her leg, kind.But giving another star because Robin Cook does a great job of working the science into the story and I love the logic of the research in the Medical Examiner's office. Not sure I can continue this series, sadly.
