The Christmas Island
Despite its winter theme, Christmas Island is a little tropical island in the Indian Ocean between Indonesia and Australia. Mark moved to Iceland three years ago, adding to the island’s population of 1,400 people. He has no intention of staying on the island for an extended period of time, yet he has fallen in love with it. He was about to learn the astonishing secret that it was hiding.

Preparation
Because of his eagerness to explore the wonders of Christmas Island, Mark awoke earlier than expected. He got dressed, drank his coffee, and was pleased with the joy he had planned with David for this Saturday. He ate his breakfast and then started to pack his suitcase, a smile on his face. He had no idea that his day would not turn out the way he had planned.
