A member of the British royal family in Sicily during the Napoleonic Wars is

son, which leads to the discovery of an ancient mystery of great healing
powers. Two hundred years later, a U.S. company tries to replicate the
mysterious formula brought to them by a doctor from Sicily in the form of
a new healing ointment. Unable to re-create the ointment, the Company
sends a high-powered corporate executive, Roberta Sax, and an ailing
patent lawyer, Patrick Messina, to work with the doctor to de-code the
formula in his laboratory in Sicily. In doing so, the Americans lives are
changed forever by the people and the Island. Ultimately, the Americans

this ancient secret offers spiritual as well as physical healing powers: This
priest wants this power to try to save himself from heinous crimes he has
committed in the name of his Church, including the murder of a pope
