With the help of Kate Reilly, his Yale Medical School love, Gabe tracks down Kimberly's chairman, who offers him a lucrative consulting deal and a septuagenarian scientist whose precise experiments promise chilling answers to the Virazine puzzle. As the hunt quickens, Gabe uncovers an elaborate corporate coverup engineered by top-level strategists, enforced by payrolled conmen, and fueled by potentially staggering drug benefits.
