Book excerpt: The location is Kinshasa, the capital of The Democratic Republic of Congo. It is the Modern Day and there is one mission: survival. Two initial strangers, an ordinary African boy living in the environs of the capital and the daughter of the President, lead two complete contrasting lifestyles. Their lives become quickly intertwined, however, as the country is thrown into yet another civil war. As time progresses, their friendship is formed, and they quickly become reliant upon each other for survival through multiple events that further tear apart the country. Their trust and reliance upon each other develops to heights previously unknown to them. The story expresses the importance of hope and how it is universal, even in the nation that boasts the worst war figures since World War II - 5.4 million people had been killed through gunfire, but many also due to the prolonged periods of starvation and disease from 1998 to 2008. 1000 people died each day during 2004... - www.fleetinghope.com -
