Synopsis

Europe has been invaded, the superpower across the sea is no more, and the country of "Baltania" is controlling Europe through communistic puppet governments. Under the oppressive cloud of communism, a small group of underground Christians faces a powerful crime organization bent on their capture and destruction. 

Under this heavy, oppressive cloak, Kevin Kramer, a 30-year-old, and Maritza, his attractive, 27-year-old girlfriend, must decide who they will serve as they fall in love with each other, start a romantic relationship, and try to evade the unrelenting and dangerous members of a criminal organization, which seeks to kidnap underground Christians to sell to the secret police.

Together with some friends, Kevin and Maritza must do their best to avoid being captured as they learn to trust God and follow His guiding hand in these last days just before the rise of the Antichrist. This fast-paced story is designed to be fascinating. But, don't just take our word for it... 

[Note: Baltania is a fictional country within the Eurasian land mass. At one time, it had a communistic past. During a third world war, communism revived in this country as it's armies conquered Europe. Since we do not want to point fingers at any particular country, we will not name this country or coalition of countries.]

Kevin and Konrad passed the ashes of their campfire and continued walking for 20 more meters* until they arrived at the place where Maritza’s tent had been set up.

Kevin could see her backpacking tent in the moonlight which filtered through the evergreen trees. “Maritza,” he said, “it’s time to wake up.” He tapped on the tent fabric, but there was no movement or sounds from within. Then, he walked around the tent and noticed that the door was opened. He looked in and could see an empty sleeping bag. ‘She’s gone!’ he thought, alarmed, ‘But, where did she go?’

“Konrad,” Kevin said, trembling as he glanced at the other man, “Maritza is missing!”

Concern in the Night

“Maritza, where are you?” Konrad said, squinting at the dark shapes of tree trunks and needle-covered branches.

“Maritza,” Kevin said loudly, cupping his hands over his mouth.

The Drone

A black quadrotor drone hummed through the air as it flew high above the forest road which Konrad Adebayo, Kevin, and Maritza had driven down just seconds ago. Konrad’s rented Delta Solarstorm sedan was driving autonomously down the forest road 18 meters below the drone.

Humming like a bee as it shot through the air at 80 kilometers per hour, the robot focused on the license plate of the moving car and zoomed in to snap a photo. With its high-definition cameras and onboard “artificial intelligence” software, the drone could tell that the self-driving car was empty of people. The drone turned its attention to the forest near the side of the road as it reversed direction and flew over the road, heading back the way it had come. After several minutes passed, its sensitive infrared sensors picked up three human-sized shapes moving through the trees below.

Konrad’s Rental Car

“Konrad, I’m so glad to see you,” Maritza said from the back seat of the blue Delta Solarstorm sedan. They were driving through the streets of Kühnburg, Germany and were navigating their way through residential neighborhoods.

“I’m glad I came when I did,” Konrad said from the driver’s seat. The Nigerian’s short, bushy hair was concealed under a green baseball cap. But, his short sideburns appeared beneath the hat.

“How did you know to pick us up? We didn’t call you,” Kevin said, leaning forward in his seat which was directly behind Konrad.

Kühnburg Forest

A green Delta Solarstorm electric car pulled off to the side of a dirt road which ran through the extensive Kühnburg forest. It was a road Kevin had never been on before. He was sitting in the driver’s seat, and Maritza sat in the front passenger seat. They had just passed through almost two kilometers of a bumpy, pockmarked, dirt road. Kevin opened his door and stretched before gazing up at the upper branches of spruce trees, which were swaying in a breeze.

Both he and Maritza were dressed in dark-green trousers and long-sleeve shirts. Her blond hair was in a ponytail and she wore a green watch cap over her head and camouflage face paint. Kevin also wore a camouflage watch cap and camouflage face paint, but he felt a little silly with the streaks of brown, black, and green paint coating his face, and Maritza light-heartedly teased him about it.

Kühnburg, Germany

As Maritza walked down the street, she didn’t bother glancing in shop windows or in the rear windows of parked cars, like others might have, to see if anyone were following her, for she was thinking about the kind, brown-haired guy who seemed to be very attracted to her. And, she had to admit to herself, ever since she had met him with the group in the forest, she had thought of him as being ‘cute’ and someone she could trust.

Kevin’s Apartment in Kühnburg

Kevin was hunched over a small, wooden desk in his apartment bedroom with a floor lamp casting shadows from his head, hands, and writing pen. Out in the living room, Heinrich, his apartment roommate, was playing a VR game. So, he had nothing to disturb him as he collected his thoughts and began composing a letter to Maritza, an attractive girl he was beginning a friendship with. Her smile, pretty face, and friendly nature were like magnets pulling on Kevin’s heart.

“I just hope that we will be able to find our mysterious friend,” Svenja said from the front passenger seat.
