- Synopsis
- A traveling medicine show promises to cure all, but two kids learn it takes more than faith in the miraculous to fix things that are broken.Thirteen-year-old Jack knows what cured his baby sister when his family thought she might never get well—Dr. Kingsbury&’s &“Miraculous Tonic.&” Guaranteed to relieve maladies known to man or beast, Dr. Kingsbury&’s potion can cure everything from pimples to hearing loss to a broken heart, and Jack himself is a witness to the miraculous results and the doctor&’s kindness. When he had no money, the doctor didn&’t turn him away but gave him the tonic for free along with a job—to travel with him from city to city selling his cure-all elixir. When Dr. Kingsbury and Jack arrive in Oakdale, the town at first feels like any other they&’ve been to. But it&’s clear Oakdale is a town with secrets, and its citizens are slow to trust strangers. Then Jack meets Cora, and a friendship neither expected starts to bloom. Together they uncover something else they didn&’t expect—not only secrets about the town but also Dr. Kingsbury. As they race to discover the truth, they&’ll have to decide who and what to believe before it&’s too late.
