Pilot Samantha Connor helps fly much needed aid supplies to the conflict ravaged Democratic Republic of Congo . But, when she arrives in Kisangani, she is told that the pilot who is supposed to take the cargo on to Beni for further distribution is a 'no show' - so, she decides to fly the cargo on herself. It gives her a chance to finally meet Dr. Marc Van Eyck - who heads the aid organization, as well as his dedicated staff of Congolese assistants. But, things quickly go awry when the aid camp Sam visits is attacked by armed rebels - and Sam and the other aid workers are taken hostage by violent, murderous thugs - and forced into the very heart of darkness. The rebel attack coming just when fresh supplies are delivered seems more than a coincidence to Sam. Is there a traitor in their midst? In a region filled with conflict, fear, and greed - who can she trust? And, in a country nearly bankrupt of hope, in a land far away from everything and everyone she knows - what hope is there of rescue?
