Resumen del Editor

Kuri is only seventeen when her fiancé, Jacinto, goes missing and she’s cast from her Andean home by a ruthless tyrant. Possessing nothing but her fierce dog Keeng and a willpower to never quit, she flees to the modern world for work. With money, she can search for Jacinto, overthrow the village dictator, and protect her family; including her orphaned nephew, Patricio whom she loves as her own.
But Kuri is naïve in the dangerous city. Human traffickers trick her, and she’s transported deep into the Amazon jungle to work for a bully called Vera who runs a camp of ruthless kidnappers. Surrounded by criminals and a rainforest teeming with jaguars, snakes and crocodiles, Kuri is trapped. The horizon darkens as torrential monsoons creep closer and Kuri’s hope for the future slips away.
Then one morning she disobeys Vera and discovers two American hostages, Brent McDaniel, and his brother Ryan, chained in a bamboo hut. They are teenagers from an affluent world while Kuri lives on a dirt floor that’s shared with chickens. She feels both years ahead and centuries behind the young captives, but they instantly share one thing in common. They must escape their captors or die.
The struggles that follow change the trio in ways no one could’ve imagined. The secrets of the mighty Andes unfold like a sequence of dominos and their adventures lead them to incredible discoveries. Kuri and the blue-eyed gringos form a bond a friendship where love, sacrifice, and courage…is their only hope of survival.
