At the heart of this light, moving work of medical fiction is a scientific discovery so intriguing it promises to change cancer treatment for good ... Thirty-five-year-old bachelor Dave Tennant is at the peak of his career as a bioscientist. But he faces a lonely future without his mother, Emily, who is terminally ill with cancer. In walks Meghan MacDougal, a brilliant young Scottish microbiologist with whom Dave soon forms a bond. A seeming error in a blood analysis leads to a startling discovery: a bacterium that holds promise as a cure for cancer. Where did it come from? How is it linked to cancer? As Dave and Meghan race to solve the riddle, Emily's condition worsens. The company's strict policy against workplace romances keeps them apart. And corporate-espionage agents lurk in the shadows. Will they solve one of humanity's oldest medical questions before time runs out? And will they find a way to be together? The key lies in curing Emily.
