Dr. Alex Kertesz is a biochemist. Handsome, popular - with everyone except his flamboyant wife - and brilliant, he is the opposite of Professor Ilan Falk, whose body he discovers one night in a University of Jerusalem laboratory. He had just been wishing that Falk would "go to hell." And then there was an explosion. The dead man was inclined to be careless. And lighting a cigar in a lab would be nothing short of suicidal. Was Falk's death the result of an accident?
Falk had many enemies for whom his demise was uncannily timely. One, his beautiful lab assistant, Shoshana, confides her worry to Alex. At the moment of the accident she, too, had been wishing Falk dead. And her wish had been detailed: she was thinking "He could easily heave the gas on some day and light one of those smelly cigars. Wouldn't that be great!" Alex, the paradigmatic rational scientist, is forced to consider the possibility that wishes might actually be able to kill.
