A gripping locked-room mystery set in a cancer ward.
A suspicious lump in her breast forces Janka Vitez into the unfamiliar role of patient. For the tireless former cleaning lady, now the consultant for the chief medical examiner, the change is anything but easy.
When another patient undergoing chemotherapy in the same room dies of unexplained symptoms, the cancer ward is sealed off. The doors will not be reopened until the cause of death is determined. Despite her failing strength, Janka begins to unravel the strange case. Why would someone want to hasten the death of a gravely ill woman?
