Boys Without Names by Kashmira Sheth

Boys Without Names by Kashmira Sheth



In the struggle to survive, Gopal and his family must leave their Indian Village.  By promising their farm to the loan shark of the village, Gopal's father becomes indebted to the man with no way out.  Fleeing the village in the middle of the night, the family becomes separated from their father.  Finally in Mumbai, Gopal leaves his uncle's house to find a way to help out his family financially and to find his missing father. Tricked into a job in which he is locked down in an attic with other boys who have been sold into child slavery. Forbidden to talk or tell each other their names, the boys wonder if they will be able to get out and see their families again?
