Description
by Stephanie McCarthy (Author)
A 17-year-old Australian girl-confined inside a very secret house of the Philippines president-struggling to overcome her fear as she recalls the rumor-when Ferdinand Marcos was a teenager, he was accused of murdering his father's political rival in cold blood. In one chilling moment, she understands that this man will do anything to avoid an international scandal-anything. If she survives to tell her Filipino friends, they will leap to help her. Then they will 'disappear'. And so will she.
EXCERPT:
'Colonel Ver leant across me, opened the glovebox, and pulled out a pistol. This is how I disappear...he will order me out of the car, murder me, and no one will ever know what happened.'
