Wars and other violent conflicts destroy lives immensely. Mary and Daniel, two adolescents from a third-world country, migrated to an industrialised nation. They were horrified by how criminal syndicates in many countries exploited new immigrants. The sorrows of these two people and their friends convey, undoubtedly, the message that economic and political refugees are abused by human traffickers and are also prey of international crime syndicates.The author vividly describes the unfortunate, harsh conditions many immigrants have to grapple with. He does a good job detailing the nefarious activities of drug syndicates with international connections and the difficulty of dealing with hostility and exploitation borne out of one’s illegal immigrant status. Is this the prize for escaping war and poverty in search of a decent and peaceful life? The blood that boils, spills over. Where does war end and peace begin? What of the ordinary, innocent lives ruined by political upheaval?The book is a classic mixed bag of optimism, despondency, admonishment, and suspense that is succinctly presented to keep the reader glued until the last word. It details the lives, experiences, and observations of these two youths in a thrilling fashion.
