    Ten days after falling two miles from the sky, Juliane Koepcke stumbles upon a remote hut in the Peruvian rainforest—only to be mistaken for a mythical water goddess by the men who find her. Weak, injured, and barely holding on, Juliane learns the harrowing truth: the jungle has swallowed the wreckage of LANSA Flight 508, and as far as anyone knows, she is the only survivor. As she embarks on a desperate journey back to civilization, the world begins to learn of the miracle girl who defied death itself. But survival comes at a cost—and Juliane is about to face the hardest truths yet.
