Vetrasian scientist Mila Groso built a career out of developing cures for the galaxy's deadliest diseases. After her husband and daughter are murdered in cold blood, she makes it her mission to find a cure for death itself. Mila isn't the only one interested in her research, though. The planet's religious leader sends his minions to stop her from negating the existence of an afterlife. A mysterious mercenary threatens her life unless she hands the research over. It's obvious too many people know what she's doing. Fighting to stay alive, Mila must fend off both groups with their diametrically opposed goals and find the ultimate cure to resurrect her family. What once was a potential miracle may end up a greater curse than she can imagine.
