When she tries to find joy and solace in an abandoned fox kit, she lands herself in even more heat--this time with the law. And just when she thinks things can't possibly get worse, she receives a text message that breaks her heart.

Crestfallen, and feeling like a criminal, Elita takes a trip to visit her wise friend Mrs. Burgley, where she learns about sea glass and how God uses tumbling and turbulence to make things beautiful.

Elita experiences the Lord's kindness in opening a place for her as a junior counselor with her friend at Camp Cherry Hollow. But when a camper goes missing, and night begins to fall, Elita must trust God as she races through the deep, dark forest in search of the lost girl.

In the final book of the Elita Brown series, Elita learns to forgive herself and love others.
