Maria witnesses the brutal murder of her mother by soldiers of the corrupt Malangan regime. Fearful that she will be the next target, her father sends her to Ireland for safety. But the refugee hostel in the village of Culduagh is not the safe haven she expected. Hostility to the strangers erupts into violence and Maria finds herself caught in a collision of cultures, fuelled by prejudice and fear.Despite this, a friendship blossoms between Maria and local boy David. But danger still threatens in the form of Jonah Kegale, a secret policeman from Malanga sent to Ireland to find Maria.
