A powerful story of love, faith and hope in the wake of a Crime Committed and a Forgotten Past Remembered.Life for Ruth and Dick takes a turn for the worse on a last-minute trip to a remote area of Oregon. Dick, who has summers off from teaching, convinces Ruth they will be back in time for her job as a nurse on Monday. The young couple leaves early Friday morning anticipating a romantic weekend with plenty of photo ops for Dick's hobby. Yet nothing goes as planned. They meet a strange man at an old farm, whose piercing stare frightens Ruth. Suddenly, she finds herself lost and alone running from this man, searching for Dick. Ruth takes refuge in a village of deserted broken-down homes and an old church, where she hides overnight and learns about a forgotten community.
