The Courage Tree

Can a mother ever give up hope?

Janine wants her child to live a normal life full of adventure, so she lets her precious daughter go on her first overnight camping trip.

When Sophie disappears, Janine is immediately facing a countdown she has no control over. Because Sophie isn’t like every other girl…she suffers

from a rare disease. Every day her daughter is missing is one day closer to her death.

A race against time.

A race to save her little girl’s life.
