When Elder Nathan Williams shakes hands with his mission president and boards the plane to go home at the end of his mission, he's excited to see his family again. But from the moment he encounters Jessica, a lovely Sioux young woman, in his assigned seat, the plans he had for a peaceful, reflective flight home quickly take a turn for the unexpected. When Nathan is reluctantly drawn into an FBI drug investigation, he and Jessica find themselves playing a deadly game of 'Keep Away!' And the other players are serious about it -- deadly serious. For their safety, the two young people are soon on the run, and Nathan is unable to return home as planned, much less let his parents know what has happened.

If he completes his new 'mission' to Washington, D.C., will Nathan be able to return safely to the potato farm in Idaho? Jack Weyland mingles action and adventure with the societal problem of racial discrimination in this exciting novel.Young Nathan, an elder in the Mormon Church, is aided in his escape from murderous drug runners by a beautiful Lakota Sioux girl who teaches him about her people as he shares the gospel with her.
