Nightmare Along the River Nile
(A Story of Twentieth Century Slavery)
The Nightmare begins on an ordinary evening. A bus heading to Gulu in Northern Uganda, is ambushed by rebels of the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). Passengers are captivated and taken to their headquarters in Sudan. Among the captives is Edgar, a humble student who has just finished high school exams.
In Sudan, Edgar is sold into slavery and forced to work like a beast of burden. He wonders how much of himself can survive enslavement before his connection to home is lost forever. He clings to three things: his faith, the memory of his mother, and his determination to escape and find his way back to the River Nile.
Back home, three friends piece together Edgar’s route, and embark on a difficult rescue mission that nobody believes in. The search will cost them more than they expect, and it will change everyone who returns home.
