Summary

Growing up poor, Yasmine vowed she would always protect her little brother from harm. She broke her promise on the day she left home, abandoning Fadi to his life in the Stockholm slums.

Now, years later, Yasmine still carries the guilt of leaving him behind. Then she hears a rumour that he has been killed by a US drone in Syria. What happened to turn her brother into one of the CIA's most wanted men? The answer will shock her. It will shock you, too.

Not an easy read.

I struggled to finish this. Well-written, but too long. I found the abundant use of the f-word grating.

Great story

Great story. Superb narration.
This story kept me on the edge of my seat as we follow Yasmin who returns to Sweden to find her brother, Fardhi. ❤
