Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Serenity races against time to save Inara's life in an original Firefly tie-in novel that reads like a lost episode from the show
A deadly disease
Months after Inara leaves Serenity, Mal and the crew finally learn the reason for her sudden departure: she is dying of a terminal illness. It is Kiehl's Myeloma, a form of cancer that's supposedly incurable, and Inara has very little time left.
A disreputable scientist
Through their shock and despair, rumors of a cure reach the crew. Expert Esau Weng is said to have developed a means to treat Inara's condition, but he has been disgraced and incarcerated for life on a notorious Alliance prison planet.

Sequel to: The ghost machine / by James Lovegrove.
