Saving Saskya Simon Geschwindt

Saving Saskya is an exciting, challenging and moving philosophical story of enduring love while one man's inexorable slide into corruption is matched by another's redemption. Saskya joins her father, a visiting scholar in ethics at the University of Cape Town, to do voluntary work in township schools. Appalled by the corruption, lack of resources and extremes of corporal punishment, she decides to return to Europe with her father. On their return journey, they cross South Africa by train to one of the world's most dangerous cities - Johannesburg - an error of judgement that has terrifying consequences.
