The Sign

When April Turner and her fourteen-year-old daughter, Blake, stumble upon a homeless girl holding a sign asking for help on the streets of downtown Chicago, they simply walk past her without giving her another thought. But, when April hears the voice of her deceased husband, Nick, in her head commanding her to turn around and go back to her, April is stunned.

Claire Forrester's life up to that point has been one disappointment after another. Ever since she was a little girl, she had never known what it was like to have a caring family. Her mom was a drug addict who lost custody of her years before and was now serving a lengthy prison sentence for causing a car accident while under the influence. Her dad left her when he found out he had a daughter on the way.

What starts out to be a simple act of charity, turns into something more than April, Blake and Claire could have possibly imagined. The journey that began with a handwritten sign will take Claire places that will ultimately transform her life into one that is filled with unconditional love and will lead to a revelation that will forever change the way she thought of herself.
