Tom and Carole are a happy young couple who have everything they could possibly ask for--except good health. While renting a summer house on Cape Cod, they meet their landlady, Lucinda Hobson,
a mysterious woman who claims to possess the answer to their prayers, a potent elixir, capable of curing almost any illness and extending life indefinitely. But what happens when someone who
can live forever might lose the one thing that makes their life worth living? In "The Elixir," it is a profound realization about the true meaning of life, death, faith, and love.
