Otis Cruikshank was once a brilliant scientist. Now, everyone agrees that his spark has faded; he is likely too old and tired to continue his research with the same intensity. When he offers to collaborate with young colleague Robert Niles, no one believes the project will bring about significant change. However, Otis knows that his experiment will mean a breakthrough in science. He has proof - he tested his treatment method on his own daughter Heather. He saved her life while jeopardizing his own career. Only the family knows about the intervention; everything must remain a secret. Otis, however, keeps precise records of the project's progress. Heather Cruikshank lives under constant pressure: she fears a relapse of her illness, worries that someone will uncover her father's illegal actions, and is burdened by her conscience regarding Robert. She realizes he should know the truth, yet she is afraid of such a step. The family has already gone through a difficult trial, and it would not be easy to cope with another tragedy. The Cruikshanks managed to push through the costly experiment. At first, everything goes well and the results are more than satisfactory. Then the situation becomes complicated...
