Call the Lady Physician - “The War on Christmas!”

Written by Brandon L. Joyner 

Synopsis:

Step into the snowy streets of Budapest for a holiday adventure with Cliff Ryder, the ever-daring pilot, and Dr. Elise Banks, the unflappable Lady Physician. When their plane crash-lands far from their destination, the duo stumbles into a city on edge—where revolution’s aftermath has left children hiding beneath churches and soldiers on the hunt. Tasked with healing the sick and outsmarting a determined Major Stanev, Cliff and Elise must navigate icy catacombs, tense standoffs, and their own clashing personalities. 

Will courage and compassion be enough to keep the orphans safe through Christmas Eve, or will the shadows outside finally catch up with them? As the bells fall silent and danger closes in, how far will our heroes go to protect the innocent—and what awaits them in the mysterious telegram that arrives at dawn? 

Tune in to Call the Lady Physician and ask yourself: what’s their next move?
