A baby is abandoned on the doorstep of a church on the coldest night of the year. The child is taken in by a preacher who has lost his faith. In the girl, the preacher will find an opportunity for redemption. In the man, the baby will have a devoted father. Winter's Eve tells the story of four people who come together in a cruel and unforgiving world to form an unlikely family. MACK, a man who has lost everything. RICHARD, a young boy, orphaned by his own father. DOC, a scavenger of the wastes. And, WINTER, a deserted infant. They rely on one another throughout the years to survive in a harsh, unforgiving environment. The date is unknown. Such knowledge has been lost to the world. Men are savage and heartless. Slavers trade supplies for children, to those ruthless enough to deal with them. As Winter comes of age, she dreams of a place beyond the shelter offered by her found-family. Although, she does not fully understand the consequences that can come with exploring the ruined world. In a time when life and death are always in question, will the bond of their family be enough to ensure survival?
