Chuck Blackfoot and his lifelong friend, Jeff Harding decide to take a much needed vacation to get away from their demanding jobs in Washington, DC, and do some rock climbing on Devil's Tower, located not far from their home town of North Fork, Wyoming. It would also give the men a chance to visit with their families. An accident causing serious injuries to Chuck sends Jeff back to town to arrange a rescue for his friend, leaving Chuck alone with a dangerous storm rapidly approaching. Neither man is prepared for the rapidly unfolding events that will throw their lives and the lives of the entire world into utter chaos. First Chuck is rescued from the storm; not by a paramedic, but by a wild animal. Then serious weather conditions threaten to change the face of the earth. These events and others threaten the life of the United States President and take the lives of other world leaders. The solution to all these strange happenings is literally at the fingertips of one man; Chuck Blackfoot, in the form of an unusual amulet worn around his neck. Can the solution to the world's problems be solved that easily?
