Set in Monrovia during the reign of Charles Taylor as war wages just outside the capital, this is the story of a lone woman who works to help victims with their trauma while struggling through her own tourment on her own.  Include some vivid flashbacks to the war itself and probes the reader to contemplate serious questions about peace, reconcilliation and forgiveness.
