The powerful best-selling novel, now a major motion picture, of how a grief-stricken man’s encounter with God changes his life forever. With 20 million copies sold worldwide, The Shack is an international best seller that explores life’s toughest questions through the gripping story of one man’s struggle to find answers to his suffering.
Mack’s youngest daughter, Missy, was abducted during a family vacation, and evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later, still trapped in his great sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack. Against his better judgment, Mack arrives at the shack on a wintry afternoon. What he finds there will change his life forever.
The Shack wrestles with the timeless question ‘where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?’ Mack’s experiences when he faces up to his darkest nightmares will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as they did him. This is the kind of story you’ll want to tell everyone about. Millions have discovered it already – now it’s your turn.

This book has definitely challenged me to be vulnerable and ask God to heal every deep hurt in my heart…
