"I will search the whole Universe, if necessary, until I find a certain feisty, little red head." It is the year 1868. Will Gideon see the fulfillment of that promise? If so, will three years of searching be worth the sacrifice? Will unforeseen circumstances only bring him disappointment and heartache? To Gideon, whatever the end result, it will be worth it. Pushing aside past delays and dead end leads, he follows his heart and holds on to a glimmer of hope.
