Synopsis: Mike Temple is a top executive in the defense industry. On the day he is asked to join Jimmy Carter’s administration as the secretary of defense, he receives a mysterious letter from Korea. The letter begins with “Dear American Father”…

…and what Mike learns from the letter changes his life forever.

In her letter, Victoria, Mike’s Amerasian daughter, begs him to save her from the disturbing plans her mother, Yun-Jin, has for her. Victoria wants to come to America. The letter jars Mike’s memory about the years he spent in Korea and the Korean woman he fell for…

… but not hard enough to marry her.

After creating a temporary rift in his marriage when he reveals the news about the daughter he didn’t know he had, Mike returns to Korea with the blessings of his wife, MaryAnn. Before his departure, the couple agree that Mike should do whatever it takes to bring Victoria to the States. Once in Korea, Mike comes face-to-face with the scorned Yun-Jin. Their relationship had ended abruptly when Mike was transferred to the States by his company.

Mike endures Yun-Jin’s wrath and submits to her financial demands in order to gain custody of his fifteen-year-old daughter. After Mike brings Victoria to the United States, he learns that he cannot maintain his singular focus on his career…

…and he makes an unexpected change that will allow him to be more active as a father, husband, and advocate.

This is one man’s story of being caught in the middle of two cultures with all the passions and turmoil that ensue, forcing him to evaluate his life, his priorities, and his values. It is a picture of a search to find oneself that each of us confronts at some time in our lives. What Mike does will surprise his daughter, his wife, and himself and expose the world to the terrifying predicament that befalls children…

…Of Mixed Blood.
