Amidst a fatal diagnosis, Tess Sullivan, a high-powered executive, faces an unimaginable dilemma as her teenage daughter, Pen, plunges into the abyss of self-destruction. At a crossroads, and determined to rescue her daughter, Tess makes a heart-wrenching decision-she will delay her own cancer treatment and embark on an extraordinary journey to save Pen.

As Tess and Pen set off in the scorching sun on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage across Spain, their departure fills Tess's husband, John, with an overwhelming mix of fear and hope.
