As the holidays wind down, Kieli continues her 'research trip' with her companions - Harvey, a near-immortal soldier known as an Undying, and the Corporal, a soldier's spirit possessing an old radio. Their fates irrevocably intertwined by a bloody war waged eighty years ago, Harvey has promised to help the Corporal pass on by returning him to his final resting place...even with Kieli tagging along. But when saying their last good-byes to the Corporal goes awry, and they are attacked by Church soldiers after Undying hearts, Harvey is convinced that it would be best for Kieli to go home. But is it really Kieli that needs saving...or is Harvey sacrificing his last hope for salvation?
