<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>At night, silence descends on the most violent city in the world. A curfew slows the bombings and murders. By day, a huddle of pacifist missionaries asks, Should we flee the city? Or wait out the war with our pantry of rice and beans?</p><p><br></p><p>In clear, fluid storytelling, Dorothy draws you into events, often amusing, often frightening, with her risk-loving husband and their four young children in Medellin, Colombia, the centre of Pablo Escobar's infamous drug cartel. </p><p><br></p><p>She fills her memoir with intriguing characters: an odious quack doctor, a terrifying mafioso interrupting their coffeetime, a pig that climbs stairs, a grieving mother bravely ignoring tradition, and the church women ingeniously transforming their resources from not-enough to just-right. In Medellín's tropical Andean valley, the family's beloved jeep carries them to adventures up and down the steep roads of the poor barrios.</p><p><br></p><p>Through tears, laughter, and many faux pas, Dorothy is steadied by the voice that whispers, It's okay, Señora. All will be well.</p>
