The deadly acts of two snipers from different eras are connected.

1914 - Sixteen year old orphan JOB, falsely accused of murder, runs from his Scottish village and enlists in the Stirling Highlanders. DUNCAN, the brother of the murdered man pursues him to France to exact revenge. JOB's unique stalking experience compels him to become a sniper but it conflicts with his religious background. His Reverend uncle's letters give fierce justification for his inner struggle.

Present Day - Abused GASTON seeks a reckoning in bodies for his grandfather's family executed by the Nazis and for the loss of their ancestral Lorraine home. He sets out on his ten-for-one killing retribution after the old man dies.
Unexpected love brings a turmoil of emotions in his crusade when his idolised BERTHA is not what she seems.

Both find solace in powerful, written exhortation for their actions but they each pay a price.
