HTML: Deep in the lush and dangerous rain forests of Peru, Alexandra Pace and her team search determinedly for a cure for deadly diseases. One strain of the disease has already begun the process of ravaging Alexandra's own mind and body. Finding a cure is the only hope for her and for her daughter, who has almost certainly inherited the same disease. Alex believes she is searching for a needle in a haystack until she meets Michael Kenway, a British doctor who lost his wife when "mad cow disease" ravaged Britain in the 1990's. He presents her with an incredible storyâ??a patient suffering from the disease was cured by a mythical "healing tribe" living deep in the Amazon jungle. Reluctantly placing her faith in Michael, who is entirely too religious for her comfort, Alexandra and her team seek out an unreached indigenous group who may hold the cure not only for Alex, but also for the world. Award-winning, best-selling author Angela Hunt combines the unique rainforest setting, modern science, and a thrilling race for a cure into a powerful message of faith and redemption.

Neurologist Dr. Alex Pace is desperate to find a cure for the rare inherited brain disease that killed her mother and grandmother, that is already taking its toll on Alex’s mind and will one day do the same to her 10-year-old daughter. Her research takes her to the Peruvian rainforest with a team of scientists, but their canopy explorations take an unexpected turn when a native from a previously unknown tribe shows signs of not only having the disease, but of having been cured of it. And so the team makes the trek into the uncharted depths of the jungle to discover the secrets of the miraculous healing tribe known as the Tree People.
Adventurous and richly beautiful, with explanations of scientific and medical concepts that make me feel smart, and descriptions of jungle flora and fauna that are both fascinating and savage. At the heart of it is the intersection of the natural and spiritual, that true healing doesn’t come from simply treating physical symptoms but from putting your faith in the Healer. ( )
