Kariuki understands the rules of his Kenyan village. He knows that being late to school means beatings from the headmaster, that dallying on chores means facing his mother’s wrath, and that he must never do anything to cross Bwana Ruin, the white man who owns the farm where the villagers work. Then one summer Bwana’s grandson Nigel comes to visit and befriends him. Suddenly avoiding trouble becomes more complicated than Kariuki ever imagined.
