2 March, 1975: In Asmara, Eritrea, Yonas Kelati is born into a world of turmoil. At the same time, on the same day, Jude Munroe takes her first breath in London, England. Thirty years later, blacklisted in his war-ravaged country, Yonas has no option but to flee his home. After a terrible journey, he arrives on a bleak English coast. Overworked barrister Jude has already packed up for the day when Yonas's asylum case lands on her desk. Opening the file, she finds a patchwork of witness show more statements. A lifetime the same length as her own, reduced to a few scraps of paper. Soon Jude will stand up in court and tell Yonas's story. And how she tells it will change his life forever... show less
