Julien Rene Durant was once a good man. Born in France, he took the oath as a Jesuit Priest in the 1600s. He dedicated his life to spreading the Gospel. Now, he was a monster surviving off the blood of others; killing for survival even as he wished for nothing other than for his own extinction. After almost four centuries of guilt and hopelessness, he encounters someone who might just be able to rescue the good man trapped within the monster, but will his judgements deny him a second chance?
    
    Mary Ruth Jacobson-Ryan is nothing special; a small town girl stuck in a rut. Married to the local Veteran of the Iraq and Afghanistan Conflicts who turned out not to be the perfect guy she fell in love with before the war. She is desperate for a way out, and when things turn from bad to worse, she runs with plans to never look back. She quickly finds, however, that her search for a better future may lead her down a path with no future at all.
