But something about the kid makes Quincy believe he did not commit the murder. Shortly after Quincy begins poking around and stepping on toes, Assistant City Controller Marcus hangs himself - and Quincy discovers that his injuries suggest his neck was broken and he was placed in the noose after death.

Hours later, Barbara Miller lies dead, apparently a victim of alcoholic cirrhosis. Her identification is missing, so Monahan assumes she is an alcoholic prostitute. Astin does not regard the case as unusual, and releases the body to a funeral home where it is quickly cremated. Then Quincy discovers a microorganism in her blood sample that is unlike anything he has ever seen.

Quincy goes to the Nomad Hotel in Lake Tahoe for a pathology convention. The convention draws to a close and Quincy prepares to return home – and then the hotel physician Dr. Larry Pines has Quincy paged. Several hotel guests have developed fevers, coughs, and extreme tiredness. Quincy and a few of his fellow pathologists must discover what’s wrong with these people – and the symptoms are disturbingly similar to Legionnaire’s Disease. Complicating matters are the hotel owner Al Ringerman’s desire to keep the illness out of the papers, and the presence of Rawley Dinehart, who just might be a syndicate front man here to muscle in on the hotel business. Quincy races the clock to figure out what’s killing the hotel guests.

Quincy and his colleagues race to determine the cause of the mysterious illness. Lab tests reveal no bacteria, no virus particles, no toxins – no cause at all. The sick people get no better, but they get no worse, either. Then the doctors find Rawley Dinehart dead in his sick bed – is the illness getting worse, or did someone order Rawley’s plug pulled? Despite Ringerman’s best efforts, news leaks out and soon terrified guests are swarming to escape. Quincy cannot allow them to spread contagion elsewhere, but he cannot keep them quarantined indefinitely, either. Just when things seem bleakest, Dr. Pines’ dog dies – but that might be a breakthrough, for Dr. Pines realizes that the dog has the same symptoms, and ate leftovers from the hotel’s kitchen...

Unable to find more bones before work resumes, Quincy devotes his entire class to the reconstruction of a human life from the single bone he does have.

She hired a private investigator to find an independent pathologist to prove her father did not murder her mother, and she believes Quincy is that man. At first Quincy protests, but her tale reaches his soft spot and he agrees to investigate.

Under pressure from Farrell and her attorney to declare Farrell dead, Quincy is dismayed when he learns that his mentor Dr. Herbert Stone has become a hired gun who will testify to anything for a fee. Quincy believes his evidence is irrefutable and that any attempt to rebut it will ruin his old friend and teacher’s already tarnished reputation.

The police recover the vehicle and find just one body in the back seat – that of Robbi Parker. Now Danny faces closure under a new California law that holds the proprietor of a bar responsible if a patron leaves drunk. Facing suits, Danny cannot get insurance unless Quincy can deduce what actually happened, and prove who was really responsible. That will require delving into Robbi Parker’s past. But when Quincy discovers evidence of extensive plastic surgery, the only doctor who could have performed it is curiously reluctant to discuss the matter. And then the FBI gets involved...

That draws Quincy to the hospital where he discovers old injuries all over the child’s body – a road map depicting years of abuse. From the time line and the child’s behavior Quincy deduces the mother must be the abuser, and when the boy runs away again, Quincy suggests the father take the boy fishing while he tries to convince the mother to seek help.
