De reir mar a chuireann se aithne ar mhuintir na haite tagann se ar an tuiscint nach bhfuil an sceal chomh simpli agus a shil se ar dtus - ach faoin am sin, ta se romhall. In aghaidh a thola, beidh rol larnach le himirt ag Eoin sa choimhlint nuair a thagann si chun buaice. (Note: there is no English language translation of the text in the book.) Eoin O Siochain, a young human rights activist from Co. Clare, travels to Brazil to research the violent conflict between a native tribe and local landowners. As he gets to know the locals, he begins to understand that the story is not as simple as he thought - but by that time, it's too late. Against his wishes, Eoin will have a key part to play when the conflict comes to a head.
