There are no new questions, just new situations. Loukas trained as a doctor in Rome but is back in Philippi caring for his dying father. When the local doctor, Jehan, offers to continue Loukas's training, a friendship is formed.

But when he meets Jean Giatros, an herbalist from the Old Country, he discovers there is more to death than just dying. And more to life than just living.A story of learning to live in the midst of death.
