Plot Synopsis

Based on the novel by Judd Parkin. Small-town handyman Josh Carey finds himself at the center of media attention after attempting to resuscitate 12-year-old Luke Quinn, the victim of a drowning accident. When the boy shows no signs of life for an hour, Josh consoles Luke's mother, Sarah, in the emergency room, but when he lightly touches the boy with his hand while offering a heavenward wish, the boy is suddenly revived. Many in the town consider it a miraculous act, but Josh is not religious and doesn't believe he had anything to do with Luke's recovery, even after he seems to heal several others in the following days. When local coverage of the story catches the eye of national tabloid news producer Jack Reardon, he dispatches his most aggressive reporter, Delia Tynan, to try to land an exclusive interview with Josh, Sarah and Luke. Although they politely decline her cash offers, Delia is relentless -- to the point of potentially disrupting a blossoming relationship between Josh and Sarah. But when Josh learns his elderly mother needs expensive emergency surgery, he must make a decision that could change his life and the lives of those he cares about most.
