"Snow Angels and the Pearls" is a story of 10-years in a young man's life. A simple view of an extraordinary life lived between heaven and earth.

Embittered with a childhood lost, Billy McClure makes it to Vietnam to kill his demons and instead makes a friend, Elliot. During a raucous R&R weekend in Bangkok, Billy saves a local woman from an attack in an alley. She gives him two pearls as a gift of thanks, telling him to give the pearls to the two great loves of his life. Billy doesn't feel capable of great love, capable of any deep love at all. Back in the jungle, Billy watches as a mortar blast cuts Elliot in half. Another loved one of Billy taken, so brutally. Wounded in action, Billy has mixed feelings about going home for Christmas. His Grandparents meant the world to him, but there were also daily reminders of his young parents killed. His long journey home, his entire life is filled with malaise and miracles, dangers and angels. And two black pearls.
