Days after a backyard fight in 1980s Rushland, PA, thirteen-year-old Lewis Hoppen vanished, leaving his best friends Amelia and Mathew tormented by unrelenting guilt over the last words they spoke to him.

Now married with two children, they throw themselves into demanding careers to outrun their nagging shame—Mathew as a corporate accountant, and Amelia as a trainer in a toxic equestrian business. Exhausted and witnessing their family bond fracture, they finally realize that decades of emotional detachment haven’t changed a thing. They drop everything and buy their childhood haven, the dilapidated Sugarmere Park Campground, hoping the remote Pennsylvania woods will quiet the ghosts of their past.

But the forest isn’t offering them peace—it’s keeping secrets.

Every trail stirs memories of Lewis, fueling an obsession with what really happened to him all those years ago. Their geographic cure has become a poison, and facing the dark truths buried in these woods may be the only way to save their family.

Bravado is a sweet pony that has lost his way in the world. Traded from owner to owner, he has been separated from his family and his friends.

Will Bravado ever be reunited with his loved ones? Will he ever find his true purpose?

This heart-warming children's book about faith, encouragement and friendship will inspire the reader to believe in their very own purpose and to keep a positive outlook on life.
