1935, Hedone House, a luxurious sanatorium for the creative elite dedicated to the groundbreaking treatment of tuberculosis. As the doctor's new wife, Agnes Templeton has pledged her life to a house of fever. But Hedone is no ordinary hospital. High society rubs shoulders with artists, poets and musicians. No expense is spared on the comfort of the guests, and champagne flows freely. It's a world away from everything Agnes knows. Her husband's methods are unusual. There are whisperings about past patients and even a cure. Hedone's secrets draw Agnes in, revealing truths she could never anticipate, and soon she is caught between a past she is desperate to escape and a future she may forever regret.
