'Our mother has been gone now for a long time. It's hard to
remember anything about her except her name, which is Thandi
Modiba.' Serena runs away to Johannesburg, where the streets are
like dongas that the light cannot reach. She is looking for her
mother, and her search involves her in the lives of the many people
she meets. There is Jane, a white hobo, Sipho and the Cool Blue
Gang, and the notorious Beauty Mangele, who holds the key to the
mystery of her mother's disappearance. Johannesburg is frightening
and exciting. Serena confronts the harshness of city life, and
learns about true fear and true courage.
