Stranded — Vincent Berg

“Never Leave Anyone Behind” is a familiar refrain for American Servicemen. A crew is incapacitated in a strange land and a hostile government tries to capture them and steal their resources; a typical tale of corruption and betrayal. What if you're not a member of the military? Do you put you and your family's lives at risk to help those who can't help themselves, especially for those who may never reward you or who may not even survive? Josh discovers an injured shipwrecked alien and undertakes to not only care for it, but to seek out, rescue and protect its companions from not only his government, but others too.
