Busfield, Andrea. (Author).

Summary:

"The Taliban have withdrawn from Kabul's streeets, but the long shadows of their regime remain. Eleven-year-old Fawad - a charming, impish, and wickedly observant Afghan boy - has known more grief than most: his father and brother have been killed and his sister has been abducted....and the next calamity Fawad must face is so devastating that it threatens to destroy the one thing he thought he could never lose: his love for his country."--from the publisher.
