Dr. Brad Lewis is an egocentric, charismatic physician who's devoted to his patients but obsessed with achieving scientific success. When his neglected wife divorces him, he becomes irrational and kidnaps their young daughter. In Reunions, Brad's drive for academic fame fights with his desire for revenge but the novel itself addresses a more significant issue--whether a young child's love can humanize an emotionally closed man. On Brad's circuitous journey toward emotional maturity, he gets involved in the theft of federal property, is implicated in a murder, and unearths the sub rosa origins of the U.S. Bone Marrow Registry. Brad's faltering steps toward an emotional awakening require him to accept his former wife's grudging aid, his new lover's unconditional commitment, and his only daughter's critical illness.
