AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'For five years, Australian doctor Sofia Raso has lived in Kabul's vibrant Shahir Square, working with Dr Jabril Aziz to support the local women. She knows that living peacefully in Kabul requires following two simple rules: keep a low profile; and keep out of local affairs.
'Yet when threatening night letters from the Taliban taunt the town, and two young boys disappear from the Jamal Mina, Kabul's largest slum, Sofia knows she cannot simply watch. While the square is encased by fear, an elegant former warlord proves an unlikely ally, and a former lover re-emerges with a warning. As the search for the boys intensifies, it soon becomes clear that answers will bring a heavy price.
'Gripping and evocative, The Night Letters takes you to the heart of Kabul in a story of secrets, friendship and love in all its imperfect guises.' (Publication summary)
