Synopsis: A degenerative disease has robbed Samantha Christiansen of most of her vision and it s only a matter of time before the light and shadows are gone as well. Sam, however, is not one to let impaired vision slow her down. All business, she s introducing 1960 s America to the benefits of olive oil, and has become quite successful. Her groves of olive trees are thriving under the hand of her brother-in-law, and her twin sister s creative edge in the kitchen is bringing nation wide attention to their family-grown company.
As her sight wanes, Samantha is reluctant to admit that getting around is increasingly difficult. A near miss crossing the street leaves her on her backside with a stranger helping her to her feet. It s an encounter that changes her life. First, the man, then the dog.
