Not wanting to give into their heartache Debby and her family opt to stand up and fight back against crime and our failing systems, learning many new revelations along the way as to why crime is so prevalent in South Africa and what we can all do to bring it to an end.Although she says it "doesn't bring peace, joy, relief nor accomplishment", her message is clear; there is ultimately light at the end of the darkness.Whether you are working towards your own healing, remembering someone you have lost, or your heart is just broken for South Africa, there is something of value in this book for you.
