Rook Crenshaw is a man with a gift. Blessed with the uncanny ability to heal others, he and his friend Christian are drifters living a life of wandering solitude. That life comes to a screeching halt when Rook makes an involuntary commitment he may be unable to keep. After trying to heal a six-year-old girl's broken arm, he finds a darker reality lying beneath the surface: Leukemia. He then must face another realization: He can't save her. As Rook tries to defy the inevitable, his experiences with the girl's beautiful young mother Katherine, dangerously controlling father Michael, and Christian's destructive drug dependencies force Rook down a path that could ultimately lead to his demise....or his salvation.
