Summary: "A new pair of shoes, a university degree, a husband -- these are the things that a girl dreams of in a Nigerian village. A girl who works hard in school and to help her family. A girl with a future as bright as live coals in the dark. And with a government scholarship right around the corner, everyone -- her mother, her five brothers, her best friend, her teachers -- can see that these dreams aren't too far out of reach. Even if the voices on Papa's radio tell more fearful news than tales to tell by moonlight. But the girl's dreams turn to nightmares when her village is attacked by Boko Haram, a terrorist group, in the middle of the night. Kidnapped, she is taken with other girls and women into the forest, where she is forced to follow her captors' radical beliefs and watch as her best friend slowly accepts everything she's been told. Still, the girl defends her existence. As impossible as escape may seem, her life -- her future -- is hers to fight for."--
