After watching her young
cousin die at the hands of a prominent Cincinnati physician, Becky Hale
declares war against conventional medicine. She returns home to
Larkspur, Indiana, promoting a gentler, herbalistic approach to
medicine, while preaching against the evils of university educated
doctors.
Ephraim Morgan, fresh from Lexington, Kentucky’s Transylvania
University, arrives at his cousin’s home in Larkspur with plans to set
up a medical practice. What he hasn’t planned is finding a staunch
adversary in his cousin’s pretty hired-girl, Becky Hale. When opposing
medical philosophies collide on the Indiana prairie, will new love
succumb to pride and distrust? Or will God provide a cure? |
