NATO Rapid Response sapper Captain Kenneth Rutland needs something to believe in. His life has gone too far off course, and he's easily sucked in when a beautiful stranger gives him a chance to escape his cynical, disappointing reality.

Can he fight through the savagery and disbelief, and let the Christmas star work its healing miracle?
