The Counting Tree

By Jennifer Arrington

A love story that defies all odds.

Heidi trades the familiarity of home for the unknown, volunteering at a church camp in the heart of 1987 South Africa. Thrust into a land steeped in tension and division, she's determined to make a difference-only to discover that her greatest challenges might come from within.

The camp's director, Johann, treats her with a cold hostility she can't explain, testing her resolve at every turn. Amid betrayal, racial injustice, and personal doubts, Heidi battles to spark hope in a place overshadowed by fear. Just as she begins to carve out her place and find her purpose, a devastating call from home shatters her fragile sense of belonging: her mother has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

Fast forward fifteen years, and Heidi unexpectedly finds herself at another camp, this time in the United States. Surrounded by a heart-stopping sense of familiarity, she's about to discover why.

Centered around two poignant weeping willow trees and filled with emotional twists, inspiring characters, and humor, The Counting Tree is a heartwarming tale of love and loss, heartbreak and hope. Don't miss out on this unforgettable love story. Order your copy today
