The phone practically levitated from her hand as she hung up, her pulse racing. Jessica felt like she could fly. The wrong medical report, filled with details of someone else's failing health, had arrived in her inbox. It was an astonishing, unexpected development.

She felt like she was buzzing with electricity, a potent mixture of glee and anticipation. Her mind was already racing, plotting and scheming. This was a gift, a truly exceptional gift.
