An F-15 goes down behind enemy lines, challenging an Air Force family's faith. When survival is questionable, will their ties to God fray?
While clearing out her mother’s estate, Dani Robicheau Kirkland makes a shocking discovery: a box containing pieces of her parents’ life hidden away after her father was declared Killed in Action in the Vietnam War. Inside she finds her mother had once clung to faith and the desperate certainty her husband was alive before she spiraled into the devastated alcoholic Dani has known.
F-15 instructor pilot Chris Kirkland, chafes under his father’s expectations to live up to his granddad’s legacy as WWII pilot. But his orders to slip an unsanctioned diplomat into the Bosnian war zone could be just the assignment to silence his father's lectures. A sudden bird strike, however, sends them crashing behind enemy lines. To survive, Chris must trust God and his Air Force training—but will either be enough as hostile forces close in with no rescue in sight?
Dani is terrified she’ll nosedive like her mother did, but still clings to hope and a certainty that Chris remains alive despite the Air Force’s doubts. As she searches for a way to bring Chris home and he strives to stay alive, they each battle their family histories desperate to find God’s future for them both.
Family ties ensnare them. Can God loose their grip forever?
