A rich, unmined piece of Canadian history, an intense psychological drama, a mystery to be solved . . . and a hardwon escape from a family curse. Like his friends Banting and Best, Dr. John FitzGerald was a Canadian hero. He founded Connaught Labs, saved untold lives with his vaccines and transformed the idea of public health in Canada and the world. What so darkened his reputation that his memory has been all but erased? A sensitive, withdrawn boy is born into the gothic house of his long dead grandfather, a brilliant yet tormented pathologist of Irish blood and epic accomplishment whose memory has been mysteriously erased from public consciousness. As the boy watches his own father—also an eminent doctor—plunge into a suicidal psychosis, he intuits, as the psychiatrists do not, some unspeakable secret buried like a tumour deep in the multi-generational layers of the family unconscious. Growing into manhood, he knows in his bones that he must stalk an ancient curse before it stalks him. To set himself free, he must break the silence and put words to the page. His future lies in the past.

JAMES FITZGERALD was not interested in self promotion and left the issue of his legacy to others, believing that it would be taken care of after he died. Living by a basic philosophic tenet that held if the work was good, it would survive, and if not it shouldn't, he felt that self promotion only served as a distraction from his art, and instead focused solely on his painting. He approached his subjects with intense, careful observation, an ap- proach reflecting his fascination with Eastern philoso- phy, seeking to absorb or capture his subject's essence, creating a mental photograph or template from which he generated hundreds of preliminary sketches and draw- ings.
