Every day is a matter of life and death in a hectic New York City hospital, but for Nurse Jackie that's the easiest part. Between chronic back pain that won't quit, and a personal life on the constant edge of collapse, it's going to take a white lie here, a bent rule there, and a handful of secret strategies to relieve the pain, and stay one step ahead of total disaster.

Wayward actor, Jerry Stax is whisked away by concerned pal, Terry Ruggles, to a remote locale in deep Americana, where an enigmatic "Doctor" runs an extraordinary clinic for creative rejuvenation. While there, Jerry navigates his way through the various stimuli of the other curious "participants" and seemingly inexplicable methods of Dr. Buck. Soon enough, outside forces threaten the sanctity of Buck's operation, as strange familial ties and unquiet minds unravel.
