1991, Liberia: a mad war destroys the country. A young boy, only survivor of the massacre in his village, will do anything to achieve his revenge. A character with an extraordinary strong nature, a deeply moving novel.

“My name is Moe. The full name is Moses. My father told me that a man with the same name had saved his people from slavery by opening a path to the bottom of the sea. I was proud to call myself that, even though I had no idea what... “My name is Moe. The full name is Moses. My father told me that a man with the same name had saved his people from slavery by opening a path to the bottom of the sea. I was proud to call myself that, even though I had no idea what the sea was. Nor slavery. Others later called me Hitler. But the day this all began, for everyone else, I was Moe. I was seven years old.”

His only friend is a child soldier’s machine pistol called Sister Beretta. In memory of his little sister, murdered by the leader of the commando group that wiped out his village. Taken in by an opposing faction, Moe spends five years in a world of murder, pillage, trafficking and anthropophagic rituals, with one idea: to flee to the capital, where he hopes to find and kill this woman.

In Monrovia, when he meets a journalist searching for the causes of this absurd conflict, Moe realizes that the reporter’s investigation could be his Trojan horse. Even if it means betraying.
