Lost Beneath the Pines

Book One of The Faithful Trail Adventures

A wrong turn. A wilderness they never expected. A God who never leaves their side.

Twelve-year-old Emma Carter has always considered herself responsible. So when she and her younger sister, Lily, discover a hidden deer trail during a family camping trip in the mountains, it seems harmless to explore-just for a minute.

But one minute becomes one wrong turn.

Soon the sisters find themselves hopelessly lost deep in the wilderness, miles from their family and surrounded by dangers they never imagined. As storms roll across the mountains, food becomes scarce, and a frightening encounter with a bear leaves them shaken, Emma and Lily must rely on the survival lessons their father taught them-and on each other.

Meanwhile, search teams race against time to find the missing girls before the wilderness claims them.

Faced with fear, exhaustion, and uncertainty, Emma and Lily discover that courage isn't the absence of fear-it's choosing to keep moving forward despite it. And through every challenge, they learn that God is with them, even in the darkest moments beneath the towering pines.

Perfect for readers ages 8-12, Lost Beneath the Pines is an exciting Christian survival adventure filled with faith, family, courage, and hope.
