A heartfelt frontier drama about faith, community, and a woman doctor's struggle to heal both illness and prejudice in a small 19th-century town.

Belinda Simpson is now a doctor in a small Missouri town where an unknown plague is spreading fear and resentment amoung the townspeople. One local resident thinks the illness was spread from the town orphanage and wants to see it shut down. Belinda struggles to make sense of the disease and God's plan for the beleaguered town.
