The Pomegranate Vine

About this book

Halim and Warda grow up beneath a promise the village treats as destiny, yet their story is rooted in a far older injustice. Lalla Ghalia was stripped of property, honour and safety beneath a false display of charity and religious authority. When Warda returns after years of forced absence, deathbed confessions, graveyard cries, fire and blood-marked talismans begin to expose what the village tried to bury. Moving between family drama, dark mystery and magical realism, the novel asks whether love can heal an inherited crime or merely open the final path to revenge.
