A meteorite falls in Greenland and is credited with unusual healing power. Although the stone appears capable of doing good, those who control it repeatedly place personal advantage above the welfare of the people who seek its aid.

Carried between communities and across centuries, the object inspires devotion, fear and competition. The linked stories follow the crimes committed to possess or use it, contrasting the stone's reputed virtue with the cruelty, deception and opportunism of its human custodians.
