The Madonna's Smile

Stuart Benson's world is shattered when his wife, Melanie, dies in a tragic car accident, leaving him to raise their young daughter, Abby, alone. Gripped by guilt and struggling to cope with the weight of his loss, Stuart's life takes another devastating turn when Abby is diagnosed with a terminal illness. Desperate to save her, Stuart reluctantly puts aside his disbelief in miracles and agrees to take Abby to Lourdes, France, home to the famed Grotto of Massabielle, where, in 1858, a young peasant girl named Bernadette Soubirous witnessed an apparition of the Virgin Mary. What Stuart discovers in Lourdes challenges everything he thought he knew about faith, healing, and the true nature of miracles, revealing that sometimes the greatest transformations come in ways we least expect.
