Description
A poignant holiday novella about a man who sacrificed his family for success and the courageous little girl fighting for her life who crosses his path. On Christmas Eve, a father tells a story to his son that reveals a shocking secret: he took a life, but won't say whose. This is not a typical Christmas tale. The story begins with a chance encounter between the man and a five-year-old girl with cancer in a hospital late at night. As he shares her story with his son, he slowly reveals more about himself - a successful businessman who failed as a parent. The man's journey takes an unexpected turn when he is given the chance to do something selfless that could change the little girl's destiny. But before he can make this life-changing decision, he must confront what his own life has been worth in the eyes of his son.
