American scientist Dr Miriam Adler builds a new life in London after an influential institute director blocks the research he considers too ambitious to pursue. Five years later, a tragedy in his own family forces them back into each other’s lives — and turns Miriam’s experimental work into a race against time.

 

As scientific promise collides with medical risk, institutional power and old wounds, Miriam must decide how far she is prepared to go for a child who may not have time to wait.

​

LIFEBLOOD is a medical-psychological thriller about power, responsibility and empathy — and the realisation that, in the end, what matters is not whether someone is a man or a woman, but what kind of person they are.
