Klappentext

Max Brewman is in a deep crisis. The loss of his beloved mother, the breakdown of his marriage and bankruptcy have shattered his world and his hopes. To make matters worse, his long-time friend turns out to be an insidious enemy, and his own children are shrouded in a mysterious silence.

In a desperate attempt to get his life back on track, Max makes the brave decision to go on a journey. But what is meant to be a quest for adventure and a new beginning takes a completely unexpected turn. His fate changes dramatically when he survives a plane crash in the unexplored Bolivian rainforest. There, far from civilisation, his path crosses with that of a little girl who, like him, survived the accident. These unlikely companions become inseparable.

Together they face the dangerous challenges of the impenetrable jungle. Once on the brink of collapse, Max now faces a test of survival in a merciless environment. The search for food and water becomes a daily struggle, his fragile belief in himself a constant companion.

As he struggles to survive, Max also carries the responsibility of the little girl on his shoulders. A remarkable bond develops between the dwindling supplies and the threatening wilderness. In these dark hours of struggle and loneliness, Max discovers an unexpected strength within himself and a deep bond with his companion.

In the vastness of the unknown rainforest, where the laws of nature set the pace, Max finds a new meaning to his life. Every step through the thicket becomes a journey of self-fulfilment, every obstacle a springboard for his transformation. The unexpected alliance between Max and the girl becomes a reflection of his own struggle - the search for a new beginning and the rebirth of hope that comes in life's darkest hours.
