It is the year 1632. The beautiful, remote town of Oberammergau nestles in the Bavarian Alps of Southern Germany - quietly and securely isolated from the turmoil and torment of the Bubonic plague that ravages the rest of Europe.A humble woodcarver, Kasper Schisler returns to his home in Oberammergau from his labours in a nearby village. But unbeknown to him and the other inhabitants of the town, he silently carries with him the seeds of a calamity that will wreak havoc, terror, and destruction on Oberammergau and its people. Within a year of this day, over one-quarter of the residents of the town will be dead - claimed by the dreaded plague, the Black Death. This will give rise to an extraordinary covenant with God that still resonates to this day.
