Her body healed itself, but her identity is slipping away.
Is it a miracle or a nightmare?

Although Betsy Daniels, suffering from end-stage scleroderma, wishes she had more time to live, she’s ready to free her husband of his burden caring for her, and to end her torment. Until, miraculously, her condition improves. Not only are her kidneys healing; she’s getting stronger and healthier, with an energy she hasn’t felt in years. As happy as her doctor, Regina Thomas, is that Betsy is getting better, she’s fraught by the fact she can’t find a reason why.

But someone else knows. A hired killer is searching for a prototype panacea. He’s tracked it to Clearwater, Florida, and he’s closing in. He’s not the only one, though. Biotech genius Friedrich Gersch is also following clues to the prototype. Whoever finds Betsy first will hold the key to the greatest medical discovery in human history—or its greatest threat.
