Plot

"During these dark and dangerous times, the people long for the transforming touch of Messiah. The lepers in the Valley of Mak'ob hear the rumors-that a miracle healer is now walking the earth. Could this be the hope they have waited an eternity for? the healing they have longed for? Lily, along with friends Cantor and Rabbi Ahava, waits for Messiah. They courageously comfort the dying in the Valley. The leper Jekuthiel risks home and family, even when his baby is about to be born, to find out if the rumors are true. In these somber, deceitful days, Peniel, the once-blind begger, makes a gut-wrenching decision. Will it cut him off from the Light forever? Zadok refuses to back down from his claims about Messiah. And Pharisee Simon ben Zeraim plays a dangerous game...hiding a secret that could devastate his life-and others'-forever."--BOOK JACKET.
