Just two months before graduating from a posh London Ladies college, and while planning her lavish wedding to her childhood sweetheart, Noora is framed by her sister who masterminded a plot to destroy Nooras happiness. Believing she has shamed him and in order to preserve his family name, Nooras father attempts to drown her in an act of honor killing. Unbeknownst to him, she survives. Barely clinging to life, she flees from her fathers mansion and is rescued by a tribe of Bedouins. Still in danger, Noora travels nearly half way around the world in search of sanctuary. All along her path she must hide her true identity, while hoping to return one day and prove her innocence. However, she is relentlessly stalked by her fundamentalist former bodyguard who discovered she is still alive and vows to bring her back to justice. Follow Noora on this remarkable journey of courage and survival against all obstacles. Light of the Desert shares the moving tale of a Middle Eastern womans remarkable journey of survival, courage, and the ultimate act of humanity.
