This book takes place in a garbage dump in Behala and is about a boy called Raphael who finds a sack. People used to say to him that there is nothing important in the trash. One day, he found something. Soon, the police come looking for the sack and offer a big reward. Raphael, his friend Gardo and another boy named Rat hide the sack even when interogated by the police. I think the main idea or the theme is that everyone has a purpose in life. This book was very believable and at times confusing. It was not predictable at all and took very sharp turns that you could never guess. I would give it a 9 out of ten because it was a great book and also sad, but not a full 10 because I sometimes got bored while reading the book. "With the right key, you can bust the door wide open.
