Description: Free-spirited and rebellious Muslim-American Saira Qader rejected the constricting notions of family, duty, obligation, and fate, choosing instead to become a journalist, but when tragedy strikes five years later Saira looks to the stories of those who came before--her grandparents, a beloved aunt, her mother and father--and discovers that choice is not always our own, and that faith is not just an intellectual preference.
