Being dragged by her mother back to the family village thousands of miles away is no fun for 13-year-old Nasreen. In the monsoon rain, surrounded by wagging tongues of relatives and not being able to text friends, the mystical power of henna leads to unexpected events. Based on real stories from Muslim women this is an evocative and enchanting story of homecoming, adventure, fear and joy for a girl and her mother.

“An incomparable story teller” The Guardian
