Fiction
Afia Satar is studious, modest, and devout. The young
daughter of a landholding family in northern Pakistan,
Afia
has enrolled in an American college with the dream of
returning to her country as a doctor. But when a photo
surfaces online of Afia holding hands with an American
boy,
she is suddenly no longer safe—even from the family that
cherishes her. Rising sports star Shahid Satar has been entrusted by his
family to watch over Afia in this strange New England
landscape. He has sworn to protect his beloved sister
from
the dangerous customs of America, from its loose morals
and
easy virtue. Shahid was the one who convinced their
parents
to allow her to come to the United States. He never
imagined
he’d be ordered to cleanse the stain of her shame... READERS GUIDE INCLUDED

Re: A Sister to Honor
There are so many great books out there right now, written about things that not only should be brought to our attention, but things about our past, that should be kept alive. One book which haunts me, which I have just read recently is called Finding Rebecca, and if anyone hasn't read it, you should read it. It takes place in Nazi Germany, and is about a German boy who goes on a search for the girl he loves, Rebecca, who has been sent away to Auschwitz. This is one book you will not be able to put down!! I have passed this book on to several people, and they have loved the book as much as I have. My taste in books go all over the map, so to speak, but fiction books tend to tug at my heart. I'm looking forward to reading your book as well. Congratulations on your book!! (Peggy Roberson 10:01am January 9, 2015)
