That’s what happens to sixteen year old Will Petersen when his youth church group goes down to Costa Verde, a (fictional) Central American country to build a playground wall for a school. They end up in the middle of a battle between government and rebel forces. In their desperate attempt to escape the country, the teens find out what they and their friends are really made of when they go up against firing squads, jungle animals, and a cruel military leader. This is a great, fast paced story that reluctant readers will be glued to!
