215 pages, 1 map
Summary: The soldiers come at night. The first Hasina knows of it is her aunt's voice, urgent, full of fear. 'Up, up. Get up!' The second thing is smoke. Then the rain of bullets. 'Run and don't stop,' her father shouts. Hasina runs deep into the Rakhine forest to hide with her cousin Ghadiya and her little brother, Araf. When they emerge some days later, it is to a silent smouldering village. Their own house was not burnt but where are the rest of her family? Perhaps they have been gathered up and taken away by the army -- or worse. So many Rohingyas are gone, how will she survive? Will her parents return? Hasina must find the courage to save her family amid the escalating conflict that threatens her world and her identity. (Publisher)
