The Whirlpool of Lebanon
There’s something in the water in Lebanon, Kansas.
An eccentric rancher finds a whirlpool in his pasture that heals the sick and rolls back the years. Soon the whole town is desperate to drink, and the miracle won’t let go.
“A well-crafted comedy about the bad side of miracles.”
