Their lives as a diplomat and lawyer frozen by the ascendancy of the Taliban, Moshen and Zunaira find their situation descending into nightmarish proportions when Zunaira is arrested and condemned to death, an occurrence through which she comes to know veteran and jailer Atiq, who is embittered by the Taliban's cruelty and his wife's terminal illness.

Review:
"A stiflingly powerful evocation of a country in which war has found a homeland" (Chris Power The Times)

"Inspiring... Evokes the feeling of a nation's collective suffocation" (Daily Telegraph)

"A powerful human story" (Financial Times)

"Intense, elegant, despairing prose...deeply affecting" (Guardian)
