Just beyond the city of Portland in the Pacific Northwest, there’s a place where people just don’t go. The forest is too deep. The hills are too steep. Overgrown and impassable, these woods have remained hidden for generations from the world outside. Prue McKeel, however, desperately needs to get inside. Her baby brother Mac has been snatched up by a murder of beady-eyed crows and carried away into the darkest depths of the forest, and she has to save him.

But what started out as a rescue mission becomes something much more.

This is the story of a girl who learns how far she must go to hold on to the ones she loves, and of a woman who never learned to let go. It is a tale of love, loss, sacrifice and secrets, and of the magic you can find on your doorstep, if you are willing to look for it.

A long dreamed of trip to Portland, Oregon to experience the magic of Forest Park firsthand, the courage to go where no person was meant to go, the day you discovered the magic within yourself and became the hero of your own story.
