Book
It's fifteenth-century Russia, a time of plague and pestilence. A young healer, skilled in the art of herbs and remedies, finds himself overcome with grief and guilt when he fails to save the one he holds closest to his heart. Leaving behind his village, his possessions, and his name, he sets out on a quest for redemption, penniless and alone. But his is no ordinary journey: wandering across plague-ridden Europe, offering his healing powers along the way, he travels through ages and countries and encounters a rich tapestry of wayfarers.
