Opis

When shots ring out on the Grand Trunk Road, Nargis' life begins to crumble around her. Her husband is caught in the crossfire and dies before she can confess to him her secret. The author reflects on Pakistan's past and present in a single mirror - a story of corruption, resilience, and the hope that only love and the human spirit can offer.
