As a medical doctor and research scientist, Dr. Leah Carlton is adamant about finding a cure for the dreaded disease, cancer. A cure she certainly believes could be found amongst natural medicines. Hence, she never hesitates to leave her base in the UK to take regular trips back to her home in the rural community of Biche, in Trinidad, and back to her resplendent forest where a profuse number of potent herbs and plants, taught to her by her grandmother and mother, abound --- along with mysteries, exploits, and beings of a supernatural nature.Ever since her childhood Leah had always sensed that there was something very different about her. Not only does she wonder why she feels so connected to the forest in an inexplicable and transcendental way, but she also often marvels about not ever being ill, bruised, scratched, or harmed by any means, once in proximity --- not now, nor even back then. And what about her uncanny intuition --- an unmistakable sixth sense? And her fearlessness of the dark since infancy? Question marks persist in her subconscious mind ... lots of them.Will this turn out to be Leah's most memorable trip back home? Will she find and cherish romantic love for the first time with the young soldier whose path has unexpectedly become entwined with hers? And will she be able to break through her mother's personal barrier and finally find out who her father is? Perhaps he's closer than she thinks.
