    (This edition includes a glossary for non-South African readers.) Fifteen-year-old Sindiswe Khumalo is the most promising figure skater the South African Skating Federation has ever had. But at the rink Sindi can't talk about what's making her father ill. Even her best friends can't be trusted. The young man who drives the zamboni lost his job when people found out he had HIV. A girl in her class dropped out of school when the bullies accused her of being infected. Sindi has dreams-Olympic-size dreams. The truth could cost her everything, but keeping the secret might cost her more.

And whether she realizes it or not the war is about to become very real to Keri Anderson.While bringing food and clothes to a village in desperate need, the Anderson family is stranded in the middle of enemy territory and kidnapped by armed rebels.By night the Andersons and some friendly villagers are forced to march deep into the bush. When Vovô, Keri's African "grandfather," is left behind on the trail to die, Keri is furious with her dad for letting it happen and terrified for her own safety.What if the rebels decided she was holding them up? What if they left her behind as well? Would Dad protect her? Or would he abandon her like Vovô? Who do you trust when no one can protect you and even God doesn't seem to care?
