Description
What if surviving cancer killed you?
In his riveting new medical thriller, the author of Error in Diagnosis -- a practicing surgeon -- brings this nightmare scenario to terrifying life...
With her daughter, Hannah, on the brink of recovering from leukemia, single mother Amy Dunn thinks the worst is over -- until the night she hears moaning from Hannah's bedroom. Seeing her daughter's chalk-white complexion, sunken eyes and horrifically swollen belly, Amy immediately rushes her to the hospital...only to be accused of starving her own child.
It soon becomes apparent that Hannah is showing symptoms of a mysterious form of malnutrition never before seen by modern medicine. Called in to investigate when dozens of other children develop the same illness, neurologist Jack Wyatt is about to learn that sometimes a cure can be much worse than the disease.
