Sarah Worth abandons her life as a doctor's wife and mother to join the Arhat Ashram, a guru established in Arizona after leaving India. Through letters and recordings, she recounts her new life in the desert, where the leader's wisdom coexists with chaos; a satire on spiritual seeking and personal reinvention.

Aimed at readers of literary fiction who enjoy social satire and stories of personal quest.
