Joanna; an adorable five-year old daughter, Sydney; and a real shot at winning
the Massachusetts governor’s race. But on the eve of Will’s candidacy, Sydney is
diagnosed with a malignant, inoperable tumor. Now Will and Joanna are living in
the eerie twilight world of Briarwood Hospital, waiting for Sydney to die, and
both going slowly mad with grief. But a mysterious, charismatic hospital
counselor named Salk takes special interest in Will and Joanna’s plight When
Sydney miraculously starts to improve, Will suspects that Joanna has made a
terrible bargain to save the life of their dying child.“A medical thriller of the highest order… a stunning, riveting journey into terror and suspense.” — Bestselling author Michael Palmer
