In the ancient inn where she's taken, the child's presence sets off a desperate search for answers and a fight for her future. Trapped in the middle is a community torn between cynicism and hope, truth and deception. With the girl's identity at the heart of the mystery, the battle that ensues will forever change the lives of all who are touched by her resurrection.
