Nora Bellamy, outside counsel to Cascade Therapeutics, is asked to look at a check signed in the hand of the company's founder — six hundred dollars paid to a nine-year-old girl he had just walked over. The signature leads her to a will with a ninety-day clause, a young man who calls himself the weather that gets in, and a white room where a cabinet counts its doses down. A congressman is beaten to death with a cane she has seen in Voss's hand. A neurologist stops answering her door. What Nora assembles is the record of a brilliant man who decided the body makes one mistake worth correcting, and is running out of the thing that corrects it.
Adapted from Robert Louis Stevenson's novel Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886). Published by TalesReborn.
