Billy Pearlman is ten years old. He is smart, charming and intuitive beyond his years. He also happens to have Down syndrome. After open heart surgery, Billy seems to possess a new power-a gift that has profound effects on other people, changing their lives completely. His mother Linda is not a spiritual person, but even she has a hard time explaining what is going on with her son, or where his power is coming from. Soon their lives spin out of control. Billy attracts a following of people, including those who will do anything to obtain his gift, regardless of the outcome. This is a story of true love, and how a little boy with otherworldly power changes hearts and unites people through love and grace. It is the story of evil forces who try to take what is not theirs, the mother who gives her all to protect her son, and the MIA father who learns who his son really is.
