A Chicago journalist finds himself in a small Texas town on Christmas Eve. Lonely, he encounters old faces and new facts...a hand-carved manger, a father's guilt, a young girl's faith. The trip into the past holds his key to the future, and a scarlet cross shows him the way home.
Formerly titled The Christmas Cross, this touching family story is fast becoming a Christmas classic, with more than ninety-four thousand copies sold and a movie produced in 2004.
