Justice, mercy, and humbleness collide when four people pray for different answers to the same situation. How will God answer all of them?
What is wrong with trying to cure cancer? Brother Able, hospice chaplain, asks himself that question every day. His boss, Dr. Rich Bernard, performs closet genetic experiments at Paradise House. He blackmails Able into keeping his secret. When a grieving husband asks Able to pray for his dying wife, Able finally breaks his silence.
Libby Davis might be prepared to accept death, to sacrifice herself for Rich's greater cause but fails to comprehend the love of a husband who cannot let her go and the son who's a whisper from the edge of reason. Brother Able wades into battle for those innocents in her life. If he wins, it won't be only Libby's family he saves.
