A 14-year-old boy leaves home to play with friends. His mother and siblings expect him back before sunset. His father expects to hear his laughter again before nightfall.
Instead, the boy vanishes.
The family searches desperately, knocking on doors, praying and hoping.
Days turn into weeks. Weeks become months. Months become years.
The family’s savings are wiped out. The father sells his farmland in a desperate effort to find his son. Then he dies, tortured by questions no parent should ever carry to the grave: Where is my child? Is he alive or dead? Is he lying in an unmarked grave? Has he been kidnapped? Is he injured somewhere, crying for help?
