In September 1996, fourteen-year-old Fatima Bhutto hid in a
windowless dressing room, shielding her baby brother, while
shots rang out in the dark outside the family home in
Karachi. This was the night her father Murtaza was murdered.
It was the latest in a long line of tragedies for one of the
world’s best-known political dynasties. Songs of Blood and Sword tells the story of a family of
feudal landlords who became powerbrokers. It is an epic tale
of intrigue, the making of modern Pakistan, and ultimately,
tragedy. A searing testament to a troubled land, Songs of
Blood and Sword reveals a daughter’s love for her father and
her search to uncover the truth of his life and death.
