Story

The story

Dr. Smith has spent ten years building a charity clinic for children with severe autism, after losing his six-year-old son Lorne to grief and his wife Anna and brother Brandon to a flood. He cares for Anna's parents, who still set a place at every meal for the daughter they believe died a hero.

Then a call comes: a four-year-old girl named Lucy is dying of uremia and refuses treatment. The woman pleading for help is Anna, alive and mother to Brandon's child. They offer a million, then two million, for the one doctor who can save her.

Smith refuses. When Anna and Brandon kneel outside his clinic with Lucy in their arms, he must decide what ten years of buried grief and betrayal demand of him.

Opening excerpt

During a flood season, she and my brother accidentally fell into the water and drowned.

Three months after they left, my son also died from prolonged refusal to eat and stress-induced exhaustion.

To prevent others from repeating my son's tragedy, I took care of my wife's parents while burying myself in study. I developed a specialized treatment plan for severe autism, and later opened a charity clinic to help autistic children free of charge.

Until that day when I suddenly received a call for help.

"Is this Dr. Smith speaking?"
