"A young woman's quest for a better education results in a case of modern-day slavery. What's in a name?...When Gift escapes the limited options of her small city in Nigeria for the chance to attend college in the U.S., she never imagines she could get entangled in an international controversy about domestic servitude. Refusing to blame or be labeled, Gift draws on her deep well of self respect, determined to write her own story."--
