It's Friday, Labor Day weekend, 1999. John McDuffy is taking his two sons for one last campout before school starts. On a lonely road winding through the high country of Montana, John and his boys encounter tragedy.
Returning home, John discovers his nightmare experience in the mountains has come to the attention of the town's crooked judge, a man with a long-standing grudge against John's father. Arguing John was driving impaired, Judge Murphy puts out a warrant for John's arrest.
What follows is the gripping story of John's legal woes and yearlong imprisonment, during which terrible memories of that winding mountain road eat away at his willingness to keep fighting. On his side is a loyal family lawyer and a young legal assistant whose love for John might be able to bring him out of his grief and guilt.
Or perhaps not. Sometimes despair offers its own comforts-and its own closure. It's up to John whether he chooses life or gives in to what seems like unquenchable pain.
A candid look at love, loss, and their consequences, The Last Campout is a suspenseful mix of triumph and anguish played out over the course of a desperate court battle.
