Sean Murphy, a third‑year Harvard Ph.D./M.D. candidate, volunteers for a two‑month research elective at the Forbes Cancer Center in Miami to study medulloblastoma treatment. His decision is shaped by both scientific curiosity and a budding romance with nurse Janet Reardon. When he is denied access to the center’s main protocols, Janet arrives to work as well, and together they probe the clinic’s unorthodox cures. Their investigation leads them into conflict with colleagues, legal authorities, and the enigmatic director, Dr. Randolph Mason. Amid revelations that challenge the Hippocratic oath, Sean and Janet face grave danger as they uncover ethical transgressions hidden behind the promise of breakthrough cancer research.
