When five strangers--Marta, traveling with two children; Andy, a Vietnam vet; Ilena, a female soldier on leave from Iraq; Reggie, a laid-off assembly worker; and John, a wealthy businessman--are stranded in the airport on Christmas Eve, they come together to survive the holiday without their families and discover the true meaning of Christmas. Original.

A group of travelers get to know one another under unlikely circumstances in Saperstein and Samerjan's slightly supernatural and hokey holiday tale. After a flight is canceled, the stranded passengers get a lift from a Good Samaritan, but when the van breaks down during a snowstorm, the group searches out shelter and happens upon a remote cabin, where they meet Joshua, who knows far too much about their private pasts. In coming together to create a Christmas Eve they all will remember, they put their ghosts to rest and learn to trust and love their fellow man once again. Saperstein and Samerjan, unfortunately, have a clumsy touch, and their too deliberate handling of characters' traumas really curdles the eggnog. (Oct.)
