David Eller and his wife, Christie, work to help rescue impoverished children in Caracas, Venezuela. But for David that isn't enough. The supply of homeless children is endless because of massive poverty and the oppressive policies of the Venezuelan government. When he is given the opportunity to do something more--to heal the disease rather than working on the symptoms--David decides to go for it. But little by little, he falls into an unimaginable nightmare of espionage, ending in a desperate, life-or-death gamble to flee the country with his wife and son.
