Summary |
A stone cell, pitch black, cold and dusty. Two women struggle to escape not knowing who took them nor why. While exploring an ancient Persian archeological site, Anna and Farah are taken by a gang of renegades, thrown in a truck and driven for hours into the mountainous high desert. Held captive for days awaiting the arrival of the gang leader, they share their fears, but also memories of childhood and families, joys and sorrows. Using their wits and courage, will they be able to escape? For all their external differences, Anna and Farah discover a bond - commonalities, shared ideologies and beliefsSuperficially they are as different as night and day. Sisters beyond time, language, culture and religion. Like modern-day Scheherazades, through their stories the women discover a universe where their outer worlds divide, but their inner worlds connect. A women's inspirational novel of self-discovery and transformation and the people, cultures and the myths that shaped them. 'A grandly emotional piece that celebrates family and the overlap between Eastern and Western values.' Kirkus Indie |
