This is the story of Harry and Miraim Taylor who were called to Cambodia, the Philippnes, and Lebanon. Cambodia--originally heading for Vietnam, Harry and Miriam are reassigned to Cambodia, where in their first term they find themselves enmeshed in World War II. The Phillipines--the Taylors flee to the Philippines for the birth of their second child. Harry and four-year-old Donald are hauled off to internment camp. Miriam and baby Janice, in the hospital during the invasion, follow a few weeks later. The next 1,137 days are spent behind barbed wire and thick walls under the constant surveillance of Japanese guards. Lebanon--having completed what most would consider a lifetime of missionary service, Harry and Miriam agree to go to Lebanon. Fifteen years later they finally retire.
