Often called the Greatest Generation, they grew up during the depression and then served their countries in WW2 with courage, sacrifice, and honor. They were those who, whether they were soldiers or not, banded together to see to the end of Nazi aggression, no matter the personal cost.
Captured, a Moment in France is the story of two of these unheralded heroes. First, it is the experience of Robert Mourand, who antagonized the German soldiers at every opportunity while doing his best to take care of his family in German occupied France. The second tale is that of Sergeant James Weldon Mellody of the United States Army Air Corp who was captured by the Germans after his B-26 was shot down and he parachuted into Robert's town.
Based on actual events taken from family archives, and one timeless photograph of their meeting, learn how two honorable men rose to the occasion of war with determination and grit, and of their families who became bonded through their extraordinary, shared experience.
Daniel Richards and his eleven-year-old daughter Kylee travel to the Netherlands on a daddy/daughter vacation. While enjoying the usual sights around the country, they also witness several things that are terribly out of place: things that should have only been seen decades before. While attempting to piece the strange puzzle together, they are mysteriously transported back in time to Nazi-occupied Holland. As they attempt to survive their dangerous surroundings, they are sheltered by members of the Dutch resistance who are fighting to liberate their country from the grasp of the German occupying force. Kylee quickly befriends a mute Dutch girl, and Daniel shares his expertise in aviation with her freedom-fighting brother. Although they become separated, they work independently to preserve the textbook history of the days leading up to World War II.
After arriving in South America, twelve year old Kylee Richards and her father Daniel notice that they are the subject of unexpected attention from many of the people they come into contact with. Little do they know that Kylee is the spitting image of a young peasant girl who was sacrificed to the Inca gods over three hundred years earlier setting off 100 years of prosperity and peace. Kylee finds herself in danger because of a rival tribe’s determination to regain the ancient favor of the gods. Now Kylee and Daniel must struggle to survive in the mystical country of Peru.
Thirteen year old Kylee Richards, and her father Daniel, love the time they spend travelling the world together. They have chosen the lush islands of New Zealand for their latest journey and are thrilled by the natural beauty, the friendliness of the people, and the death defying activities they find all over.

Now that Kylee and Daniel know who they are, they too become part of their evil scheme. Join Kylee and Daniel as they try to elude danger and thwart the plans of cold blooded killers.
After two wonderful days in Ireland with his fourteen year old daughter Kylee, Daniel Richards is convinced they will finally have a normal daddy-daughter vacation. Then, inexplicably, Kylee’s help is enlisted to find an ancient Gaelic talisman needed to complete a ritual started centuries earlier. With a young man’s very existence in jeopardy, the Richards throw themselves head first into their latest adventure to help; not knowing whom they can trust along the way. It becomes a race against time as deception, greed, and treachery motivate those who want to find the Eye of Magog for themselves.
