There, she meets Farzad, an opposition leader with a plan to remove the shah and rid the world of another threat that hangs over them all. Amineh will soon find her life inextricably wound with Farzad's, and as the revolution unfolds, she will be tested by a country she doesn't recognize, by war, and by a husband who has other things on his mind. She will have to come to terms with a trauma from her past, and ultimately, she will have one final chance to choose love"--]cProvided by publisher.
