This book is a first hand account of the harrowing troubles that a South African teenager finds herself in, when a high school teacher decides to break all the rules. After a year of silence and the continuous assault placed upon her mind and body, she decides she's had enough. But what to do and where to go for help?
As the story unfolds it becomes clear that she wants to end her life. A sheer miracle brings to light this monstrous story of the betrayal of trust and the absolute abuse of power in the school. Her parents are informed and their daughter is rejected by the system. They are now left to pick up the pieces as the community recedes into the usual blanket of silence. Warning: this book contains explicit content.
