At age eleven, an escape attempt to China with her cousin ends in Hanoi, with both facing certain death by firing squad. In 1979, she goes to see her older brother as he leaves Vietnam via a dangerous sea crossing. She is standing at the riverside when a twist of fate pushes her forward, onto the boat facing her own chance. Muoi is twelve years old.</p>
