A newly-arrived physician, looking for a more purpose-driven life in retirement, discovers that the local health service district in his small mountain resort town is self-destructing from poor and inexperienced leadership. He volunteers to join their board, presuming that his medical acumen will be appreciated. Instead, by not toeing the line with the adminstration and fellow board members, he is ostracized and vilified as they see him as a threat to their control and survival.

A fellow physician with a vision for the future joins him, and together they launch a campaign with like-minded citizens to unseat the entrenched board at the next election.

An epic battle ensues that reeks with political intrigue and passion, a truly Machiavellian drama described by the local newspaper as a “circus without the cotton candy and elephants.” Whoever wins this struggle faces a huge financial debt and money-losing programs. Will the beleaguered populace awaken to the clarion call for a better tomorrow that can finally bring them 21st-century healthcare?
