"The December storm began in the far north, in the region beyond trees and grasses and living things. It started as an eddy of wind that swept across the frozen sea, gathering up the scatterings of cold and dark...." When Daniel Gibson awakens, he finds himself alone in a deserted part of the city. It is the darkest part of the night and the winter storm rages around him. With no memory of how he got there or even where he's been, he only knows there is something-or someone-he must save. Daniel's journey takes him to places that are close to us and yet we prefer not to see. In these places, Daniel discovers that, despite differences and despair, there are those who hold out a hand to give without expectation. Can Daniel give when it's his turn? A Christmas story of sorts, "The Gift of Daniel" explores grief, joy, trust, faith, death. After all, not all Christmas gifts are brightly wrapped. Sometimes, they are a gift that can only be given only once.
