  <default_description>&lt;DIV&gt;It&amp;#8217;s Christmas Eve in Santa Fe, but among the revelers on Canyon Road, a decidedly unholy scene is taking place. A desperate man, dressed all in black, feverishly seeks refuge for himself and the squirming bundle he holds tightly against his breast. Agent Paul Kagan&amp;#8217;s bundle is a baby who has the power to change the course of global events. His pursuers are his former colleagues&amp;#8212;members of the Russian mafia who will stop at nothing to accomplish their mission. Now Kagan is a spy on the run&amp;#8212;he must ensure this baby&amp;#8217;s survival, even if it will cost him his own life. &lt;P&gt;Just a short distance away, Kagan will find an unexpected pair of allies&amp;#8212;a mother and her young son, who huddle together after a horrible episode of domestic violence leaves them home alone, with no means of transportation. &lt;P&gt;And so, with the exquisitely honed skills of his profession and the help and good faith of a weary woman and a disillusioned boy, Kagan must take on forces that will stop at nothing. In the course of a wild and violent night, the unlikely trio learn lessons of generosity, courage, and selflessness, discovering within themselves the luminous strength of the true Christmas spirit.&lt;/DIV&gt;</default_description>
