But is the bitter medicine in the spoon she puts to his lips healing him or harming him?Camille Malroux is Gilles' sister.

He is unconscious and has her brother's identity papers in his locker. Only by digging to discover the true identity of the bandaged man in the hospital bed can she hope to trace Gilles.But Gilles is sinking into further danger. He is drugged.
