Description

"Things are not as they seem in Ashraf Kagee's startling and profound evocation of Salt River in 1960, as he traces the lives of Amin's three friends. The boys, mischievous and fun-loving, play a prank which sets in motion a series of events that places their live at risk. In this gripping story, they discover an awful truth about their community. Set in the aftermath of the Sharpeville massacre, the lives of four young boys weave together in a story of lost innocence, the uncertainty of kinship and the unbending nature of fate."--Back cover.
