A Shepherd's Song

Sometimes heroes aren't born or made . . . they're resuscitated.

Tom Shepherd, and alienated young man, agrees to sell the Christmas season's hottest toy for three times its price to a desperate buyer. A screwup lands him in the middle of a bone marrow drive for a sick little boy named Christo. As the scene spirals out of his control, the media there turns Tom into a hero, dubbing him "The Good Shepherd," and making Tom an overnight celebrity.

Gloria, Christo's cousin, seeks out Tom to thank him for being kind so kind to the child, and Tom, bewitched by her beauty, embellishes his character and lies to further impress her. He asks Gloria out, beginning a relationship that will lead him to examine everything he believes or doesn't believe. 

On Christmas Eve, Tom finds himself facing choices that will affect not only himself but also Gloria and Christo.

Will he choose sacrifice and honor over deceit and death? Will Tom choose love?
