His work ends in chaos, but two children survive: a boy named Benjamin, and a girl named Tessa. One hundred years later, a disgraced young police constable is reassigned to the sleepy South African town of Unie, where she makes a terrifying discovery: the body of a woman, burned beyond recognition. The crime soon leads her into her country's violent pasta past that includes her father, a high-ranking police official under the apartheid regime, and the children left behind in that long ago concentration camp. 941 $a 1 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720050150.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=10CA177A8BE611E8B24E8D0097128E48 994 $a C0 $b IO4Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
