The Moonlit Cage by Linda Holeman
The Moonlit Cage is the spellbinding story of Darya, a young Afghan girl, cursed, worthless and despised by her husband and her family, who embarks on the journey of a lifetime - one that takes her from the unforgiving valleys and mountains of her homeland to 1850s London, the heart of the mighty British Empire.
'A suspenseful, entertaining novelThe portrait Holeman paints of Afghanistan and tribal life at the time of the British Raj is brilliant. Her complex characters are likeable and easily capture the reader's interest. She has created a heroine of immense inner strength and self-knowledge unique for a Muslim girl of her background' * Historical Novels Review *
