A moving story of the African slave trade.
Obah is a young boy living in Benin in western Africa in the eighteenth century. One day his life changes for ever when he and his beloved younger sister, Banita, are wrenched away from the world they know, and sold into slavery. But the greatest pain of all comes when Obah and his sister are separated. He vows never to give up searching for Banita. Obah's love and determination to escape keep him strong, but will that be enough to keep him alive?
