For Monica Landing, who had not spoken to her daughter in fifteen years, the death of Lana is the cruellest kind of loss. For Lana's younger sister, Jean, it is an incomprehensible tragedy. Her beloved homeland holds no future for her now, but flight means crossing a landscape where armed gangs rule.
