Saren Newcastle is a mature, totally independent journalist. She thinks. During a three-day interview assignment in the Kenai region of Alaska, she changes her heart and mind about her empty kind of independence. There, she encounters Gordon Sommers, a reclusive Englishman with a secret in his past. The rustic Alaskan setting presents an array of difficulties for her, a native Texan and "city girl." Taken out of her comfort zone she realizes that she had been living with a false sense of security all along. Sommers' witnessing words and ways break through her wall of defensiveness. Also, a series of mild mishaps teaches her to put her total trust in God rather than her own abilities. Finally, she discovers
Sommers' secret and helps him to reconcile with his tragic past.
