Tears of an Angel

Set in a small South African township, the challenges and triumphs of a 17-year-old girl named Dikeledi form the centerpiece of this touching novel.

As her family struggles with her father's loss of work, Dike is also faced with turmoil in her relationships at school--especially when she is offered a way to help save her family from poverty.

With both joy and sorrow, this story shows how hope can uplift even the saddest hearts, and how with personal strength comes the power to forgive.
