An inspiring true story memoir of survival, faith, and a little girl who refused to give up.

In the late 1980s, an eleven-year-old Vietnamese girl was left behind in Cambodia.

Her parents had traveled back to Vietnam after a devastating accident left her father fighting for his life. The plan was simple: they would return soon.

But days turned into weeks.

Weeks turned into silence.

And the little girl waiting for them began to fear they might never come back.

What followed was a decision no child should ever have to make.

Armed with little more than determination, faith, and a desperate longing to find her family, she set out alone on a real-life survival journey across a foreign country toward a border she had never crossed by herself.

The journey would take her through crowded markets, river towns, Vietnamese migrant communities, military checkpoints, and dangerous border crossings during a turbulent chapter of Vietnam-Cambodia border history.

She was only eleven years old.

She had no map.

No certainty.
