The Air Force once said he was antisocial. His ex-wife had thought him merely socially awkward. All McDermott knew was that silence and the loneliness of flying was all he could ever love. Until he met Emily Farr.

An evangelist's widow, a missionary nurse, a woman used to living on her own, she had first felt betrayed when the plane came overhead. But then McDermott was there with his honesty and his tenderness, and his guns for the mercenaries across the border. And then it was too late.
