One father. Two sons. An impossible choice.
When thirteen-year-old Paul doesn''t return home one afternoon, even his twin brother, Peter, doesn''t know where he is. So their father, Clyde, must set out into the dark Trinidadian bush with a torch, to search for him on foot. And when the reasons for Paul''s disappearance become clear, Clyde will be faced with a terrible decision. How does a father choose between his children? How does he weigh up what each one is worth? Which one is the golden child?
