Publisher's Synopsis
Crossroads is dying. The plague has claimed the lives of nearly all the able-bodied inhabitants leaving behind orphans and helpless old people to care for one another. There seems to be no hope, until a much maligned single mother embarks on a single-handed crusade to save the community from AIDS. This novel is about a clash of wills between the old and the young, the traditional and the modern, the past and the future in a town facing the real possibility of extinction.
