Description This high energy story is drawn from the whole of human experience and incorporates the ultimate sacrifice of one's self for a stranger, out of body experiences, a love story, international intrigue with a sprinkling of secret spy knowledge, a positive look at race and ethnicity, and more, all unified by a close encounter with God. The story begins on September 11th, 2001, the day our great nation was attacked. This mass casualty event and how it affects the nation as the response assets-police, firemen, paramedics, nurses, and other caregivers-are brought into service, features many selfless acts by individuals that few know about. The tale explores several issues we face as a people and demonstrates how we might look at each other as humans instead of noticing race, color, or belief. Fiction imitates life, and perhaps life can be positively influenced by fiction.
