A plot is uncovered by a scrupulous doctor after a young girl dies when being treated with a supposed miracle-cure for a type of brain cancer. The doctor becomes suspicious when she realizes that all the cured patients have been men from wealthy backgrounds. As she investigates further, she comes across a startling revelation: The patients are actually having cancer administered to them by the hospital, and then being miraculously "cured" by the institution which is in desperate need of funds. The plot continues to thicken in this dark hospital chiller, written by Robin Cook, the author of COMA, VITAL SIGNS and OUTBREAK.
