description

3Idil has grown up as the adored daughter in a privileged family. She worships her father, a high-ranking official in the Somali army, and all that he represents. But as she matures and watches her parents' marriage unravel, her father's image tarnishes. Always curious and questioning, Idil begins to rebel and becomes a threat and an affront to her family's social standing. When she falls in love with gentle Sidow from the lower-class Boon tribe, their love is not only taboo, it may be doomed. Idil is ready to give up her family and social status to be with the man she loves. But she cannot guess how terrifying the repercussions will be. As the country stumbles towards civil war, Idil's actions set off a war within the family that will affect her as deeply as the politics around her.
