Thirty girls

Minot, Susan. (Author).

Summary: "With gripping suspense and exquisite craft, Susan Minot interweaves the stories of two young women fighting for salvation in the face of ruinous beauty and loss. Esther is a precocious Ugandan teenager who is abducted from her Catholic boarding school by Joseph Kony's rebels and, along with twenty-nine of her classmates, forced to witness and commit unspeakable atrocities in the Lord's Resistance Army. Jane is a sensual, idealistic American writer often waylaid by romantic pleasures who has come to Africa hoping to regain her center after a devastating marriage...In unflinching prose, Minot brings Esther's and Jane's journeys into startling alignment."--
