Description
In The Mission, John Hagen tells the gripping story of Iona, a dedicated medical student who travels to a remote mountain village in Guatemala to complete her final elective. Drawn to the rich history and vibrant culture of the country, Iona embraces the challenge of providing medical care in a place with no telephones, electricity, or modern medical facilities. Her only connection to the outside world is Roberto, her supervisor, whose frequent visits offer comfort and companionship amid the tumult of a civil war.
