In 1911, two wheathy, British heiresses came to a sanatorium near Seattle to undergo the revolutinary fasting treatment of Linda Burfield Hazzard. It was supposed to be a holiday for the two sisters. But within a month of arriving at what the locals called Starvation Heights, the women were emaciated shadows of their former selves, groaning in pain, waiting for death. Dora and Claire Williamson had fallen into the hands of Dr Hazzard, a woman of extraordinary evil and greed who would stop at nothing short of murder to achieve her ambitions.
