Publisher's Synopsis
A young doctor in the 1890s struggling with his addiction to alcohol. His wife and family help him deal with the consequences and repercussions of his problem. This is a story of good triumphing over evil. The evil in this case comes in the form of inherited alcoholism. This is a curse for any person but particularly more stigmatic (and potentially dangerous) when one is a doctor in a small village. Neighbors will talk, jealous coworkers will scheme and accidents will happen...
