Saving Kabul Corner (The Kabul Chronicles)

Saving Kabul Corner (The Kabul Chronicles)

From Afghanistan to America, family matters most in this â€œempowering mysteryâ€ (Publishers Weekly), a companion to Shooting Kabul, which Kirkus Reviews called a â€œstory with much to offer.â€

A rough and tumble tomboy, twelve-year-old Ariana couldnâ€™t be more different from her cousin Laila, who just arrived from Afghanistan with her family. Laila is a proper, ladylike Afghan girl, one who can cook, sew, sing, and who is well versed in Pukhtun culture and manners. Arianna hates her. Laila not only invades Arianaâ€™s bedroom in their cramped Fremont townhouse, but she also becomes close with Mariam Nurzai, Arianaâ€™s best friend.

Then a rival Afghan grocery store opens near Arianaâ€™s family store, reigniting a decades-old feud tracing back to Afghanistan. The cousins, Mariam, and their newfound frenemy, Waleed Ghilzai, must ban together to help the families find a lasting peace before it destroys both businesses and everything their parents have worked for.

â€œSenzai successfully weaves the dynamics of Afghan culture, history and political wranglings into a classically American mystery story (Kirkus Reviews).â€
