In 1939, six-year-old Tom Fitzsaxby is sent to a remote boys' orphanage in the mountains of a South Africa divided by race, language and war. English in an Afrikaner institution, he becomes an outsider and a target, forced to learn quickly how cruelty and prejudice operate. Yet friendship, courage and an enduring hunger for justice help him survive. As Tom grows, the wounds and lessons of childhood shape his search for belonging and love in a country where identity can determine a person's fate.
