Ana

by Charles Schlereth

Overview

Ana lives with her sister and father Jesus in the small village of La Providencia in the heart of Peru's Amazon jungle. They're thrilled when the state government establishes a school. The teacher becomes a friend of their father but then is last seen when he walks into the jungle carrying a map drawn by Jesus. Days later the girls witness the village mayor murder Jesus. He sees them and they flee, afraid that he will also murder them. They run to a passing boat and hours later arrive in Iquitos where a priest and a young childless couple shelter and protect them from those that would harm them.
