'Ambitious, intricate, riveting' THE TIMES
________
Journalist Farah Hafez is after another killer story. But at what risk to herself? . . .
What connects the following:
In Saigon, 1965, war correspondent Raylan Chapelle suffers a horrifying experience.
Thirty years later, his son, newsman Paul Chapelle, is in Moscow to investigate an attack on his former colleague when he stumbles on a well-guarded secret.
And Farah herself, in the garden of the presidential palace in Kabul, is forced to relive a traumatic event from her childhood.
Different people. Different places. Different times.
But all entangled by threads of love and war - threads that Farah can't help but unravel, no matter the cost . . .
