John Hornby and Norman Shearer are two middle-aged Canadian doctors deeply engaged in the search for a cancer cure. Their quest is beginning to show promising but somewhat puzzling developments, when they are lured away from Toronto to join a research center in California. There they are guaranteed more freedom to conduct their work, wherever it may lead them, reluctant as they are to leave behind patients they are carefully observing and treating - especially the star of the TV Blue Network, Faye Delisle. Chadwick Hamilton, an immensely wealthy business man with his own motives for enlisting them, supports a private lab in Notlimah, his enormous, spectacular, innovative country estate near Los Angeles. When they take up their residence and their work in Notlimah they are drawn into bizarre life-changing experiences for themselves and for those close to them, including Shearer's needful wife and restless teen-age daughter. For, adjacent to their new research center is Notlimah's sprawling idyllic commune, overseen by Hamilton's estranged son, Garth, whose job is to guide and nourish a unique environment in which young people can thrive freely and creatively. In this remarkable setting, the Hornby-Shearer medical research project veers into unchartered territory, where the human dream of everlasting youth emerges to collide with the realities of incurable disease and inescapable old age.
