She longs for a child. She finds a son. But nothing prepares her for the fight that comes next.

Pamela Sampson is a journalist chasing stories around the world - until life hands her one that she hadn't expected. She travels to Guatemala and adopts a baby boy - the one she has long dreamed of. They land in Bangkok, and she resumes her career and new life as a single mother. Then comes shattering news: Joshua has a rare and devastating heart defect, so complex that only a handful of surgeons in the world have ever tried to repair it. Overnight, her life turns upside down: no longer bylines and visas to exotic destinations - but scans, charts and hospitals that smell of antiseptic and fear.
