Mahmood becomes a target of the new fundamentalist regime and is murdered. Forced to flee Kabul with her three children, Fereiba has one hope to survive: she must find a way to cross Europe and reach her sister's family in England.

Fereiba and Saleem struggle to reunite, and ultimately find a place where they can begin to reconstruct their lives.
