    January 1915: Twenty-five people contract typhoid at Sloane Maternity Hospital. Two die, including a prominent doctor. The missing cook is Mary Mallon, working under the alias "Mrs. Brown." For five years she cooked in hotels and hospitals, infecting at least fifty more people. Recaptured in March 1915, Mary returns to North Brother Island permanently. She spends twenty-three years in exile, suffering a stroke in 1932 that leaves her paralyzed for six years. Mary dies November 11, 1938, age sixty-nine. Nine people attend her funeral. Her case establishes precedents for public health authority and raises enduring questions about justice, individual rights, and how society balances freedom with collective safety.

    March 1907: George Soper confronts Mary Mallon in a Park Avenue kitchen, accusing her of spreading typhoid. She attacks him with a carving fork and flees. Dr. Sara Josephine Baker and five police officers hunt Mary through neighboring homes, finding her hiding in a closet. Forced testing confirms massive typhoid bacteria in her system. Mary is imprisoned on North Brother Island for three years without trial. In 1910, she's released with conditions: never cook again and report regularly. She attempts laundry work but the poverty wages prove unbearable. By 1911, Mary disappears from monitoring, her desperation driving her back toward the forbidden kitchens that will seal her fate.

    Summer 1906: Six members of the wealthy Warren family fall mysteriously ill with typhoid fever at their Oyster Bay retreat. Sanitary engineer George Soper investigates the impossible outbreak and discovers a shocking pattern connecting seven families over six years—all employed the same cook. Mary Mallon, an Irish immigrant, left twenty-two typhoid cases and one death in her wake while remaining perfectly healthy herself. Soper's detective work reveals the revolutionary and terrifying concept of the "healthy carrier," someone who spreads deadly disease without ever feeling sick. His investigation solves the medical mystery but raises an impossible question: what do you do with someone who kills without knowing it?
