Medical and de-mining personnel for the United Nations must escape from war-torn Angola before revolutionaries kill them.

Angola is on the brink of revolution. When talks break down between the government and the rebels, United Nations personnel must flee the country for their own safety. Jack, his son Tom, and their friends Kat and Gabriel are removing land mines from country roads. Hildy, a physician and Kat's mother, joins this foursome as they try to escape to the Namibian border. Rebel forces, including a faction led by the vicious General VanDamm, will do anything to stop them.—Ken Miller <[email protected]>
