Captivating!
This book hooked me from the ver beginning. All of the chatacters are well developed, you like them all and want the best for all of them.
Huda, a secretary for the Australian Deputy Ambassador and an unwilling informant for the Iraqi government.
Ally, the deputy ambassadors wife. In Baghdad with her husband, searching to find information on the mother she hardly knew.
Rania- A Sheiks daughter. Huda's childhood friend. Is now struggling to get by, selling her father's belongings to make ends meet.
All three women are connected and need to help one another.
It is a gripping tale of friendship, betrayal, trust, and reconciliation.
I learned a lot about Baghdad in this book. I hadn't known much about how the government worked. It is so appalling. I feel for the people there and hope things get better.
I highly recommend!
