The war is over. The Others have won and are taking power in the completely bombed-out city. Friends Tarek, Tuk, Nata and Ren sit in their basement hideout and wonder how peace will work. They are alive, yet they all bear visible and invisible scars. Gradually, they begin to open up to each other and become a sort of family. Until a dilemma challenges their bond.
Is it possible to overcome hatred for a people who have wiped out your own family? Can you love when you have experienced the worst kind of violence? Can you remain moral in a destructive world?
Eva Kranenburg sensitively weaves these questions into a compelling story.
