    About this ebook

    America is a miserable country in the near future. Natasha is a back alley doctor since she refuses to perform abortions and wants to help those who can't afford the price of normal medical attention. Even though she struggles to get by, she still tries to help the helpless however she can and resist the temptation to lash out at a country that doesn't care for its citizens.

      Where am I? he says.
