Killing Faith

Arizona, summer of 1849. A mysterious plague sweeps across the American West, claiming the lives of humans and animals alike without discrimination. Determined to save her daughter, a child whom the superstitious townsfolk believe has the evil touch, Sarah, a formerly enslaved woman, sets out in search of Preacher Ross, a revered healer. Strapped for cash, Bender, an atheist local physician and ether addict, agrees to escort them, prepared to endure a challenging 4-day journey across hostile territory to ensure their safety. But The Girl is only a sick child, not a possessed vessel. They say miracles happen when you believe. Or is it all nothing but tall tales and fiction?
