Synopsis:
More than a decade after the end of the cold war has chilled
the Marxist rebel movements around the world, one hot spot
remains-Columbia.
The inexplicable loss of three major U.S. assets draws the
attention of the world to the Columbian demilitarized zone.
Are the local Colombian rebels responsible? Or is a deadly
Middle Eastern secret cloaked by the jungle canopy of the
DMZ?
Among the contingent of politicians and media headed for the
DMZ seeking answers is reporter Julie Baker, whose parents
had been missionaries in Colombia. Old hurts and terrors
surge as she revisits the place of her birth-and her parent's
deaths. When Julie's own abduction by guerrillas triggers a
time bomb that has been ticking under the feet of the U.S.
for a decade, she is left with more questions than answers.
With the fate of two countries resting in her hands, Julie must
put aside her own terror to face just what God's call to sac
rifice will mean for her past and her increasingly uncertain
future.

Our Thoughts
This book is another must-read! I was so into this book
that I was carrying it around while getting chores done
and trying to finish it every chance I got. Ms. Windle
is an awesome storyteller and it was like being in the
actual story..
