Was it medicine? Mercy? Or murder? For the sake of his conscience, and the community in which he practices, he has to find out.

When pregnant Sarah Hampton dies suddenly at an alternative cancer treatment facility, an enraged community demands to know whether her physician-husband assisted her death. Suffering from traumatic amnesia, Jake would like to know too. He is strongly against assisted suicide, and yet his wife was suffering such agony--is it possible... ?

Barely avoiding a trial for her murder, hoping to unravel the questions he's not sure he wants answered, Jake joins a medical practice in his former hometown. Once there, he not only continues to encounter public suspicion, but is getting subtle and ever more threatening clues from an unidentified stalker. Are his wife's death and the stalker's appearance mere coincidence? Or is a sinister someone trying to destroy him completely?
