Synopsis

A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.\nIsabel's incandescent curiosity is piqued when she is asked to help a professor of medicine who has been disgraced by allegations of scientific fraud concerning a newly marketed drug. Would a doctor with a stellar reputation make such a simple but grave mistake? If not, what explains the tragic accident that resulted in the death of a patient? \n\nAn investigation is in order, especially since a man's reputation is in jeopardy, and a great deal of money is at stake for the pharmaceutical company involved. \n\nShe's also occupied by the envy she feels in the face of Jamie's new friendship with the composer-in-residence at the University of Edinburgh. Whatever the case, whatever the solution, Isabel's combination of spirit, smarts, curiosity, empathy and unabashed nosiness guarantees a delightful adventure.
