At forty-two, psychiatrist Joe O'Loughlin seems to have it all: a thriving practice, a beautiful wife, an adoring daughter. But Joe's snug, happy world is crumbling. Recently diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, he's dreading the inevitable and all too palpable deterioration of his body and mind. Then, when the police ask for his help in solving the brutal murder of a woman they assume is a prostitute, he's horrified to recognize the victim as a nurse he once worked with, and with whom he had a bit of a past. As Joe begins to suspect that one of his patients may be responsible, the police zero in on him.
When another murder strengthens the police’s case against him, and even the threads of evidence he collected himself are used to tighten the web, Joe is forced to rely on his own devices to clear his name. Pursued by the police and betrayed or abandoned by the people he trusted the most, Joe comes heartbreakingly close to uncovering the conspiracy against him, but he only gets it right by half. By the time Joe appreciates the true extent of it, he's on the brink of losing the two people he holds most dear.
