Summary
Suffering from ill health and haunted by the memory of his deceased daughter, Darwin is driven to finish his masterwork --even as his enemies increase and the gulf widens between him and his family. Torn between faith and science, work and family, Darwin risks everything as he dares to challenge the notion of God's plan, and embarks on an enthralling journey of self-discovery.Additional Information
