An elite oil town and a poor mining village are two different worlds separated by a high fence. Each has its own laws and customs, and its inhabitants hate each other. Only a terrible tragedy can put an end to this eternal feud and motivate these children from two different social backgrounds to change their attitudes toward each other. This is the coming-of-age story of four children, each with their own destiny and future. But the tragedy of the past binds them tightly together for many years, preventing them from going their separate ways.

This is a novel about friendship and betrayal, social inequality and conflict, hopes and unfulfilled dreams. And about forbidden love for a man living in another world—a world behind a high fence.
