Summary:
"In South Africa, in every thirty seconds a woman is raped. July Abraham, a
girl
at an elite school in Pretoria, South Africa, never imagined she could stop a rapist, until she falls over a class mate, Andie, in the gardens at Mark's party. Finding Andie, who has just been raped, shatters the lie that has silenced July. She realizes that this man attacks
any
girl
because he simply can. People hide the crime out of shame and fear; the cops blame only the victim. In the cold of that dark garden, with Andie unconscious in her arms, July resolves to find and stop this man. She does not have a vehicle, friends, or a fortified castle of a home. Her mother is widowed and dying. But she does know something about this rapist: he has a gang of thugs who do his bidding, boys from her school whom she can name, who go around and find his victims. To find and disarm him, she will have to confront them. But she has nothing to lose. If she protects even one more
girl
, her task will have been worth it."-- provided by publisher.
