Winner of the 2012 National Indie Excellence Book Awards, FINDING EMMA is a "heartbreaking story of a mother's journey of hope...captured by the emotion and depth of the characters from the beginning."A child torn from the arms of loving parents, a relationship torn apart from loss... Megan sees her daughter Emma everywhere. She's the little girl standing in the supermarket, the child waiting for the swings at the playground, the girl with ice cream dripping down her face. But it's never Emma. Because Emma's been missing for two years. Unable to handle the constant heartache of all the false sightings, Megan's husband threatens to walk away unless Megan can agree to accept Emma is gone. Megan's life and marriage is crumbling all around her and she realizes she may have to do the thing she dreads most: move on. When Megan takes a photo of a little girl with an elderly couple at the town fair, she believes it to be her missing daughter. Unable to let go, she sets in motion a sequence of events that could destroy both families lives. 50% of the proceeds of the paper copy of the book will be donated to The Missing Children's Society of Canada - an organization dedicated to reuniting families.

I have a rule with myself...an unwritten rule of course. One that I have broken on occasion but each time I hate breaking on principle. This rule is that I do not start watching a movie unless I can watch from the very beginning (previews preferably). Once you're late coming into a movie, it's a c...
