Rising sports star Shahid Satar has been entrusted by his family to watch over Afia in this strange New England landscape.

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"--
