Its eight years since 9/11 and Samia-Al-Sayyid has fled Iraq and is living a quiet life in New York. She has a seventeen-year-old son who she loves, a best friend called Susan and a job where she works hard. Perfect right? Wrong. One day her estranged brother who she left behind in Iraq turns up on her doorstep and all of a sudden her son is dead and accused of terrorism. A bomb he is accused off setting off killed her best friends son and her bosses husband. With no choice, Samia flees back to Iraq and has to face her past. She has now come full circle.
At first, I didn't think this book was going to be for me, the more I read the more I found I enjoyed it. I found myself feeling real empathy for Samia. This book takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions, it makes you wonder how so much bad can happen to so few characters but that is life.
This book is definitely a page-turner and even if like me you think it's not your type of book, give it ago you may just find yourself pleasantly surprised.
Thank You to the author for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
