The ultimate cure that could heal any disease? Crazy. That's exactly what research scientist Marian Creighton has always believed about her father's quest, even if it does stem from a desire to save her sister Ellen from the genetic disease that stole their mother from them. But when her father falls into a coma after drinking a vial of holy water believed to contain traces of residue from the Tree of Life, Marian must question all of her assumptions. He's left behind tantalizing clues that suggest he's crossed back in time. Insane. Until Marian tests his theories and finds herself in the Middle Ages during a dangerous peasant uprising. William Durham, a valiant knight comes to Marian's rescue and offers her protection . . . as his wife.
The medieval action intersects with the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381, giving the search for miraculous healing a setting of social rebellion and royal repression. Marian’s scientific assumptions are challenged without being discarded, and the romance turns on whether love can justify remaining in a dangerous past.
