The description of this book gave me chills- to think about these women in a land where it is possible for everyone to be working against you. The opening of the book speaks of the innocence of children; when you have no reason to believe that a promise will be broken. Then the book starts with the reality of Huda's life described in such detail that I could imagine her heart racing and the fear she felt from not so veiled threats. Each woman has her own secrets- I can't wait to read more.
