Secrets of Wintertine

U.S. Naval LCDR Gabriel Foster has been through many struggles in his life. Long deployments, dangerous operations, and limited communication have placed a strain on his family. The demands of the military have caused him to separate from his wife, Sara, and he has to communicate with his daughter, Addison, from long distances. Gabriel is a reconnaissance pilot who commands a small crew, co-pilot LCDR Calvin Aldridge, and Aircrewman Second-Class (AW2) Anthony Sano. The men have been through several spontaneous operations together, but nothing could prepare them for the newest assignment. They must fly to the dark region of the Arctic Sea and investigate a stress signal coming from a lonely cargo ship located near the Komsomolets Island. When Gabriel arrives to his destination, the airship is hit with a highly advanced weapon. The sailors accept their fate, but an unexplainable phenomenon allows a window of opportunity to escape. As the U.S. Navy investigates the attack, Gabriel, Calvin, and Anthony are forced to take leave just before Christmas. When Gabriel returns home, he discovers Sara has moved on from the marriage. Heartbroken, he plans to spend the Christmas holiday with his daughter. However, when Sara is kidnapped by the same cell who attacked him in the Arctic, he is forced to travel to the hidden village of Wintertine for help. There are many secrets in Wintertine, but the biggest one is the true identity of Sara’s father – he is a Saint by the name of Nicholas. Secrets of Wintertine is an emotional roller-coaster of intense action and suspense. This is where Christmas fiction ends and the real legends begin.
