Nobel Prize-winning scientist Sarah Collier has taken a step back from work to spend more time with her family. Her father is suffering from Alzheimer's and needs special care. She's started to show early-day tell-tale signs of the disease, too. Her husband Daniel, a neuroscientist himself, is doing his best to be supportive. When Sarah is invited to be the guest of honour at a prestigious biotech conference in Geneva she declines, until Daniel shows her the kind of work that the enigmatic Mauritz Schiller has been developing. This is technology that could change medicine forever. It could save Sarah's life-- but someone close to Schiller seems bent on taking advantage of the situation for themselves. - adapted from jacket
