Twenty years ago, young Andy Boone shared an absorbing and
unforgettable experience with his fifth-grade sweetheart. Now,
laden with sadness and guilt, he searches in vain for the young
woman and her family. The search begins when he crashes his car
into a prairie fence in East Texas one rainy April morning in 1992.
Little does he know that this chance blunder is destined to have
repercussions far beyond the deep scratches on the rear of his car.
Inexplicably, he will be drawn back to this spot again and again.
Andy's search is complicated by the seeming anonymity of the woman
he seeks. It is also burdened by distractions arising from his
career and his entanglement with the FBI. They regard him as
suspect because he's snooping around neighborhoods asking
questions. Still, he pushes on, but he is growing weary and afraid.
Just the plain mystery of it all-the inexplicable absence of even
the tiniest clue as to her whereabouts-threatens to strangle his
dedication. Even more crippling is the beating he takes from his
own internal confusion: guilt, sad memories, and difficult
questions. Now, a frightening picture is emerging-something
unthinkable has happened to the family he seeks.
Nineteen-year-old Sarah Lock is on a desperate run for safety.
As she sits behind the wheel of a stolen truck and speeds away from
Dallas, Texas, she knows the battle is not over. Emotionally
devastated, Sarah watches helplessly as her dream of finding
someone to love her despite her shame-despite the wounds of a
humiliating stigma thrust upon her as a child-shatters before her
eyes.
Sarah, in possession of many secrets, boards a bus and heads
back toward Dallas, knowing that her personal safety is dictated by
every decision. Knowing an abusive husband will soon be looking for
her-and his truck-Sarah finds her way to her Aunt Gina's home,
where she vainly begins to search for her purpose in the world. But
as her past continues to haunt her, Sarah vows to never let
romantic love enter her life again. Seeking solace and peace
through the healing grace of nature, she dances in a lush meadow
beside her hideaway, unaware that a young man is watching her,
patiently waiting for the opportunity to change her perspective on
everything.
In this poignant tale, a young woman takes a journey that leads
her to the brink of surrender as fate deals another blow and sends
her on a mission no one ever expected.
