Two broken people come together to make each other whole in 1850s Utah. He is a Presbyterian minister who turned gold prospector after the death of his wife, she is an Irish girl who was sold into slavery to an American during the potato famine. They meet in the wilds, she lying unconscious in the snow, having been abandoned.

An uplifting tale of hope and faith celebrates the joy of the holiday season and follows a theme of the redemptive power of love.
