BOOKLIST
"The revolution is a complicated and multifaceted event, and, in some ways, Hellmann’s story of tragic love oversimplifies it; yet she does take care to ensure that most of her characters are neither wholly good nor wholly evil. A departure from Hellmann’s crime fiction, this welcoming novel may make a good introduction to an important culture and history for readers curious about Iran."
