Publisher's Synopsis

During spring break in March 2013, Mary Owen, a twenty-three-year-old student at George Fox University, went missing.


She was an avid adventurer and outdoor enthusiast who had previously hiked the 2653 mile long Pacific Crest Trail (PCT).


This is a story of the agony one mistake can precipitate, a story of blunder, peril, and reckoning on a hazardous mountain at a dangerous time of year. It is a compelling story of obsession, the allure of the outdoors, intense longing for adventure, entrapment in the wild, and Providential survival. It is an unforgettable story of prayer, faith, and hope, and of days of silence, turned into song and resurrection.


Many people have asked for this story to be written. The book includes Mary's account, her parents' perspectives, along with a collage of contributions from other people who became part of the story as it unfolded in real-time.
