seen again. Aasmaani refuses to believe she is dead and still
dreams of her glorious return. Now grown up and living in Karachi,
Aasmaani receives what could be the longed-for proof that her
mother is still alive. As she comes closer to the truth she is also
irresistibly drawn to Ed, her ally and sparring partner, and the
only person who can understand the profound hurt - and the profound
love - that drives her. _______________ 'An elegant, challenging
novel about love, loss and deception ... vibrant' - Daily Mail
