Official synopsis Publisher
Somewhere in one of the countries on the west coast of Africa, a ruthless civil war had broken out. A family of four, a husband and a newly pregnant wife plus two children, unluckily got caught up in the quagmire of this cruel war. In an unexpected turn of events, the warlords and their henchmen ordered the rebels to kill some targeted aliens within their captured territories. The family formed part of those ill-fated aliens. To survive the war, they needed to use all their wits and bravery to outmaneuver the bloodthirsty rebels. For over three years, the family took refuge in dense forests infested with all kinds of wild animals and bloodsucking insects. There was no hospital, no food for the pregnant woman and the family. She had to be delivered in bizarre and difficult circumstances. This author experienced the bitter conflict and saw the beginning and the end of the protracted war. He recounts a true life story of the acts of brutalities, hate, genocides, deceits, and gross human rights abuses that usually characterize wars. Follow the saga of human suffering, adventures, and utter dehumanization that human conflicts can cause, also the sex slavery of adolescent girls, culture of indiscipline and impunity, and the sheer uselessness of modern African wars.
