WWII May 1944 Stranded behind enemy lines, hunted by the Gestapo, wounded and disoriented Fighter Pilot; Jack Dodds is rescued by agents of the Belgian Resistance. Jack meets a wonderful collection of Resistance members working out of a building in occupied Belgium known as the "Chicken House." He earns the nickname, "Cowboy" from a tough, grizzled resistance fighter after he is forced to kill a Nazi predator attacking Ellen, a young Belgian woman with whom he is falling in love. The rest of the "Chicken House" crew call him "Cowboy" after he single-handedly kills two roadside cut-throats when they encounter their makeshift roadblock. In this action-packed historical fiction thriller, we see a love story unfolding. Not just between two young people who were thrust into each other's lives by a crash landing in the Ardennes Forest, but by the "Greater Love" of brave men and women, civilians, clergy, religious, military who were willing to lay down their lives for their fellow human beings.
