James Wilberforce has finally achieved the American dream. Since immigrating to America from the West Indies as a young adult, he's managed to build a successful business and family with his wife and three children. James knows he leads a blessed life, and he is eager to expand his achievements.
Then the unthinkable happens: James learns he has a rare form of bone-marrow cancer that has yet to be successfully treated and cured. The only expert attempting to research the disease is Professor Hooper, who's conducting a study on experimental treatments.
Professor Hooper is James's best hope of survival, and his research associate Dr. Mary-Ann Sanford assures James that he is in good hands while he's participating. Although James's symptoms improve at first, his condition later worsens. James desperately wants to believe in the cure, but even as Professor Hooper and Mary-Ann assure him it's within reach, his deteriorating body may be evidence of a dangerous scheme at work.
As his trust in the experts begins to waver, he finds his control over his finances and the connection to his once-happy family both waning. James is facing the toughest battle of his life-and it's not just cancer he's fighting.
