In 1776, the young American republic birthed its first nonbinary preacher. Based on the Public Universal Friend. Early in the American Revolution, Jemima Wilkinson is stricken with Columbus fever and her family fears the worst. They are stunned when she awakens proclaiming Jemima has died and been replaced by a genderfluid spirit. Their concern deepens when 'Comfort' the new spirit, is determined to warn New Englanders about the impending End Times and urge them to salvation. Comfort's plan to evangelize upsets the family and the local Quaker community. When Comfort sets out to ride the preaching circuit, trouble follows. An unhappy sibling takes matters into his own hands, and a close friend betrays their trust. The clock ticks toward the End Times with zealous foes ready to pounce on Comfort's every word as evidence of heresy. With enemies in close pursuit, Comfort faces the ultimate test of their power and must find the courage to face charges of blasphemy and sacrilege, which hold serious consequences in the volatile revolutionary times.
