A prostitute suffers at the hands of her employers. And her best friend Kalen struggles to save her daughter from a cruel marriage. She begs Zahra for help. Although Karen's plan goes against her mendicant vows, Zahra reluctantly agrees. But this silent act of terrorism will have far-reaching consequences -- for herself, and for all the women of her planet...Marley, Louise is the author of 'Terrorists of Irustan', published 1999 under ISBN 9780606192446 and ISBN 0606192441.
