"The Satos, a modern Canadian family with a Japanese martial arts background have lost their daughter in Northern Sudan. The United Nations, the Canadian Government and the Sudanese Government can't seem to find her. Through the help of a close friend, who becomes an intermediary of sorts, the family manages to find a way to get to the Sudan through the Country of Ethiopia. It is here that the real adventure begins. Ethiopia, touted by some as the origin of mankind, presents its own problems and the Satos are glad to leave it and its seedy militants behind only to run into the arms of a deadlier soul; the desert of the Sudan. The family is not prepared for what it finds; the onslaught of extreme environmental factors, the gathering of numerous characters from various cultures, the theatre of civil unrest and the blending of ancient and modern ways, yet all seem to play a role in the finding of Setsuko Sato. From the raiding of a camel driven slave caravan to the commandeering of a host of stolen military trucks laden with food, water and medical supplies that ends up being distributed to thousands, to a standoff with the infamous Janjaweed, a notorious band of renegade rebels, this story will make you laugh, cry and hope for the Sato Family and the many displaced peoples of the Sudan."
