Two 30-year-old friends from Richmond, Virginia feel the call to adventure in their lives. When Will's grandfather, a WWII Veteran, dies close to the 50th Anniversary of the Battle of Dutch Harbor, the men decide to go backpacking in Alaska to walk in his footsteps. Once there, they encounter odd behavior by the locals and a much more intimate walk with WWII than expected. A shocking discovery while on their last hike puts them in fear for their lives. Could this be a real WWII time warp, they wonder. But the danger is real, and before they understand the scope of what they have truly uncovered, it will also put the lives of their loved ones in Virginia at risk. This adventure- mystery has twists and turns the reader won't see coming. This journey is filled with danger, humor, and civility among strangers, friends, and family. The spiritually-driven insights that come in reflection of the character's challenging lessons make this a feel good story with a satisfying ending.
