His attempts are noble, but the watch is stolen. Nathan’s actions to get the watch returned cause more turmoil for his family. Struggling to make sense of his life in "the land of freedom," Nathan discovers truths about his family, God, forgiveness, and the girl he loves.Written for the General Market (G) (I): Contains little or no; sexual dialogue or situations or strong language.
