""Do you believe in miracles?""
In Seattle, single mom Kerri Sullivan knows she is running
out of time for her nine year old son Cody is slowly dying
from Gilliar's Disease. Her only hope to save her
offspring is the mercy and money of Nathan King, whose son
died of that illness six years ago as researcher Dr.
Abram Wallace was on the verge of a breakthrough in his
lab before the fire destroyed his workplace. She has
taken work at the Grill where King eats although she knows
the rumors that he lost his heart when his son died. She
confronts him when he comes for lunch and he tells her to
leave; she is fired and escorted out with no success at
obtaining his financial backing of Wallace. Based on a tip from his chauffeur Tim, her new plan is to
pretend to the media that King cares and is putting up the
money. Nathan fumes as he prefers controlling his
publicity, but has little choice if he does not want the
wrath of motherhood that could impact business. However,
though feeling trapped he has a price to charge this
ferocious single mom. This is five tissue box tear jerker that will leave the
audience weeping throughout hoping for a miracle. The
underlying theme is medical miracles need funding to help
achieve them. Readers will admire the lead female
character as she refuses to give up while much of the
support cast like Abram's long time assistant Linda and
the townsfolk of Songwood believe in him. With a strong
caring support cast, fans will answer Al Michaels' "Do you
believe in miracles?" in the affirmative when Susan
Mallory is the inspirer.
