The suspenseful and heartbreaking story of an immigrant family driven to pit love against loyalty, with devastating consequences

Isma is free. After years of watching out for her younger siblings in the wake of their motherâ€™s death, sheâ€™s accepted an invitation from a mentor in America that allows her to resume a dream long deferred. But she canâ€™t stop worrying about Aneeka, her beautiful, headstrong sister back in London, or their brother, Parvaiz, whoâ€™s disappeared in pursuit of his own dream, to prove himself to the dark legacy of the jihadist father he never knew. When he resurfaces half a globe away, Ismaâ€™s worst fears are confirmed.

Then Eamonn enters the sistersâ€™ lives. Son of a powerful political figure, he has his own birthright to live up toâ€”or defy. Is he to be a chance at love? The means of Parvaizâ€™s salvation? Suddenly, two familiesâ€™ fates are inextricably, devastatingly entwined, in this searing novel that asks: What sacrifices will we make in the name of love?
