When a boarding school is raided by the Lord's Resistance Army, a group of friends is conscripted into the army as child soldiers. Though some of the main characters do not take part in the fighting, they still see and hear the horrors of war from their perspective as young adolescents. When it is clear that their parents are unable to rescue them, they must escape on their own. After their escape, these former child soldiers must be re-acclimated into a society that now fears them.
