Even though she came from a background of wealth and privilege, Sally would have welcomed the opportunity to accompany her husband to the primitive villages of Papua New Guinea as a missionary, but there was more to consider now. They had just adopted two young Inuit children who hadn't yet learn to speak English. Would it be fair to transplant them form the Arctic to the steaming jungles? The Sinhuna family was just getting settled into their new lives and this would be a major disruption, demanding yet another adjustment. Still, this was a rare opportunity for Paul to fulfill a life-long dream to serve as a missionary pilot, and after all it was a short-term assignment. Though she certainly realized there was a spiritual need, the thought of living in primitive conditions for nine months with two young children didn't appeal to Sally at all. Did her reluctance stem from selfishness, fear, or realistic concerns about potential dangers that may await then? Wanting to be obedient to God, she prayed for direction and assurance, and the Lord sent a sign that was unmistakeable. The dangers Sally feared they may encounter in the remote jungles would prove to be only imagined. The real dangers they would face didn't involve poisonous snakes, crocodiles or cannibals. The real threat would come from being hunted by determined terrorists, driven by an evil ideology that is attempting to ensnare the world. Could they survive this unexpected ordeal? Would they live to see their children again? WHAT READERS HAVE SAID: "Lots of surprises, intense climax, heart-pounding tension " "This story makes you feel you're in the jungles of New Guinea, living among the people. It gives a good sense of their culture, and the impact missionaries have had on them. You can't help but care for the story's characters, and the tension builds until you can't put the book down. "A page-turner. Educational, thrilling, exciting, fulfilling. You won't be disappointed."
