Summary
Told who to cheer for, who to believe in, Yuri grows up in a country where no freedom of thought is encouraged. But, it is still a shock when a few careless words lead him to a virtual death-sentence, sent on a nightmare journey up north to a camp amidst the frozen wastes. What, or who, can he possibly believe in now? Can he even survive?
