Christy Lefteri has crafted a beautiful novel, intelligent,
thoughtful; and relevant. I'm recommending this book to everyone I

*Benjamin Zephaniah*
Vivid, haunting prose
*Daily Mail*
A read that champions the resilient human spirit.
*Fabulous, Sunday Mirror*
A harrowing adventure story that's informative as well as
immersive.
*Sunday Express*
A hard read and not always enjoyable and or relaxing, but well
worth it. I came away with a much greater insight and deeper
understanding of the plight of refugees. Christy takes us through
Nuri and Afra's detailed journey so beautifully that we experience
every step with them and feel every heartbreak.
