"Standalone sequel to My Sisters Made of Light, Jacqueline’s first novel that explored a Pakistani family’s determination to educate women and defend human rights. The Shawl of Midnight is a coming-of-age story, a family saga, and a hero’s journey set in Pakistan, India, and Kashmir. We pick up the story eighteen years later, following young Nafeesa into the depths of family relationships, surprising changes over time and distance, and how we might discover through our own pressures and actions what we are shaped by--exactly what we are made of, and where home truly is"--,Author website.
