Book
The brink of freedom / Stella Leventoyannis Harvey.
When a well-meaning Canadian aid worker in Athens decides to take a young refugee boy into her care, she is unexpectedly jailed and accused of kidnapping. The boy is just one of thousands who desperately cross the Mediterranean in rickety boats in the hopes of using Greece as the conduit to a better life elsewhere. But even here, on the the brink of freedom, these refugees who have sacrificed so much could lose so much more.
