In the dead of night, there's a knock on the door at Haven, an inner-city youth center in St. Louis. A refugee familyβscared, tired and hungryβseeks shelter. Fresh back from Afghanistan, former marine sergeant Joshua Duff takes on the mission. He recruits aid worker Liz Wallace, but she has questions for Joshua. Such as why a Texan with an oil magnate for a father is working at Haven. Or why a man who fears nothingβincluding the gang violence threatening the centerβseems scared of opening his heart to her.
Joshua will call upon his training and his faith to protect Liz and Haven. Yet the most dangerous threat lurks closer than they realize.
