Publisher's Summary

Ali and Salma are Beja people, living in the hauntingly beautiful but harsh hills of the Red Sea region in the Horn of Africa. They belong to a tribe that time forgot, under siege by a Western culture that challenges the very core of their ancient tribal traditions and beliefs – including female circumcision, otherwise known as female genital mutilation. Enter David Stark, Zimbabwean doctor and Aid worker, caught up in a civil war and an unforeseen awakening of love that challenges his own values, faith, and future. When traumatic events cast these three together, their intertwined stories are a moving microcosm of the search for universal human values in a conflicted and divided world. Drawn from first-hand experience of how love can bridge cultural chasms, this is a gripping and heartwarming tale of the triumph of the human spirit and the love of God.
