ABOUT THE BOOK
The book is about a 14 year old boy who lost his parents in a mysterious way and decided to run away to an unknown desolate place to forget the pains he has gone through. He eventually ended up in a squatter camp in the company of Phumaphi a street hustler, drug and alcohol addict, but Boyana was introduced to a life of all these and still had the ambition to go to school. His dream and longing later paid off when he met the pastor's daughter who through the help of her parents managed to put him into school and later realised that his family was robbed of chieftainship which he later claimed and in the process married one of the pastor's daughters.
