A Journey of Captivity, Courage, and Redemption
"When a child costs less than a fishing net, the child becomes disposable."
At Mind’s Eye Comics, we believe in the power of stories to shine a light on the "invisible." That is why we are proud to feature Lake of Tears, a stunning graphic novel that is as beautiful as it is urgent.
The Story
Set against the hazardous backdrop of the inland fishing industry on Ghana’s Lake Volta, Lake of Tears follows the lives of three teenagers woven into a gripping tale of survival. It is an empathic "ode" to the thousands of children trafficked into forced labor—a speculative fiction narrative built on a foundation of hard-hitting social truth.
