Her quest to avenge her brother consumes her. But can her victim offer redemption instead?

"A taut, crisp debut achievement that colorfully evokes the Pacific theater of WWII. Start this one forewarned: it's a stay-up-all-night read." --Jerry B. Jenkins, 21-time New York Times bestselling author

1942. Pilot Dave Delham sees his Japanese bombing mission as an act of heroism. But his naive view turns grim when he's caught and endures years of imprisonment at the hands of cruel captors. Despairing that he'll survive, Dave vows if he escapes, he'll answer God's calling.

Osaka, Japan, 1948. Miyako Matsuura longs to restore her family's shattered honor. After watching her little brother die in a horrific American air raid, she's been reduced to prostitution to survive.

Two damaged people race along a collision course that could bring their souls eternal change. Can Dave and Miyako transform their tragic histories and surrender to compassion and faith?
