Mystery | Thriller
From Ausma Zehanat Khan, the critically acclaimed author
of The Unquiet Dead and The Language of
Secrets,comes Among the Ruins, another powerful
novel exploring the interplay of politics and religion, and
the intensely personal ripple effects of one woman’s murder. On leave from Canada’s Community Policing department, Esa
Khattak is traveling in Iran, reconnecting with his cultural
heritage and seeking peace in the country’s beautiful
mosques and gardens. But Khattak’s supposed break from work
is cut short when he’s approached by a Canadian government
agent in Iran, asking him to look into the death of renowned
Canadian-Iranian filmmaker Zahra Sobhani. Zahra was murdered
at Iran’s notorious Evin prison, where she’d been seeking
the release of a well-known political prisoner. Khattak
quickly finds himself embroiled in Iran’s tumultuous
politics and under surveillance by the regime, but when the
trail leads back to Zahra’s family in Canada, Khattak calls
on his partner, Detective Rachel Getty, for help. Rachel uncovers a conspiracy linked to the Shah of Iran and
the decades-old murders of a group of Iran’s most famous
dissidents. Historic letters, a connection to the Royal
Ontario Museum, and a smuggling operation on the Caspian Sea
are just some of the threads Rachel and Khattak begin
unraveling, while the list of suspects stretches from Tehran
to Toronto. But as Khattak gets caught up in the fate of
Iran’s political prisoners, Rachel sees through to the heart
of the matter: Zahra’s murder may not have been a political
crime at all.
