"While living the pressured, fast-moving life of a photojournalist in Paris, the author learns of an enigmatic character named Sonam, a Tibetan medicine man or Amchi. Intrigued, she inquires as to where she might find this extraordinary man, and she is told to go to Ladakh and 'turn right over the mountain...' Right Over the Mountain is the captivating story of the journey and the amazing events that follow, as Gill Marais and her Indian companion, Nazir, travel through the mountains of Tibet. Sonam takes them out on his rounds, and together they witness miraculous examples of healing - even a woman who removes kidney stones without the use of surgery!
