Synopsis:
With her young son’s potentially fatal neuroblastoma in complete remission, New York City medical examiner Laurie Montgomery returns to work at the Office of Chief Medical Examiner, where she’s been employed for more than 2 decades. Worried about whether she still has what it takes after so much time away, she finds her first case back to be a dangerous puzzler of the highest order, involving organized crime and 2 start up biotech companies caught in a zero sum game. Against the advise of her colleagues and her husband, fellow medical examiner Jack Stapleton, she is determined to solve the mystery the case comes to represent.
Satoshi Machita, a former Kyoto University researcher is set to own a valuable patent controlling pluripotent stem cells, which are destined to spark a trillion dollar industry of regenerative medicine. When he dies on a crowded NYC subway platform, Laurie must decide whether his death was natural or murder.
Behind the scenes there are people who would like to see her as far away from the investigation as possible. Despite threats against her, she presses on, until threats are carried out against her son, J.J..
Suddenly she must face solving the crime and saving her son’s life.
