I could not put this book down. Ausma Zehanat Khan has certainly hit the mark if you are looking for an all engaging story of intrigue, love, passion, friendship and culture. Dectective Esa Khattak is skilled in investigation and life. He is tasked to investigate a possible terror plot emanating from his own community and possibly his own family, of which he is the patriarch. You will experience suspense, fright, poetry and love of all kinds ( eternal, brotherly, passion and friendship) while reading this novel. It is as if you are reading today's world events. I loved it....can't wait to tell my book club to read it!

A very timely book. Ward has a wonderful style and has chosen a format that only enhances this very special story. There are so many passages worthy of writing down. "In order to live passionately you had to come to terms with the fact that death was inevitable." "Let's be in love for awhile before we worry about anything."" Maybe they haven't been forced to see the worst of human nature, to know the true value of joy." To cite a few. This delicious book will make you laugh, it will make you cry, it will make you grateful. Most importantly it will make you view your fellow members of the world in a new way and hopefully soften your heart. I simply love this book.
