Crash landing in a small plane, the Ryan family is stranded on a high-desert mesa. No food, no way to communicate with civilization, time is running out as they face a life and death race for survival. A wounded cougar stalks young Mike as he looks for help, alone in the wilderness. Disaster strikes the sheriff’s rescue party. Have their prayers really been heard?
