So when they each resolve to run away from the bleak futures they face, it’s with the knowledge that they could be facing a fate worse than death.\nWhile Yunho hopes to reunite with his omma, who snuck across the border years ago, Myunghee is reaching for dreams that are bigger than anything the regime would allow her to have. The two are strangers to each other until a chance encounter unwittingly intertwines their fates and Myunghee saves Yunho’s life.\nKept together by their dreams for a brighter future, they face a road plagued by poisonous jungle snakes, corrupt soldiers, and the daily fear of discovery and imprisonment. But with every step toward freedom, there is also hope. Will it be enough for both of them to make it to safety without losing each other along the way?\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0063011085\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0063011085.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Cho, Tina|Lee, Deb JJ\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
