In a little coffee shop in one of the most dangerous places on earth, five very different women come together.
Sunny,
the proud proprietor, who needs an ingenious plan - and fast - to keep her cafe and customers safe.
Isabel,
a determined journalist with a secret that might keep her from the biggest story of her life.
Vasmina,
a young pregnant woman stolen from her remote village and now abandoned on Kabul's violent streets.
Candace,
a wealthy American who has finally left her husband for her Afghan lover, the enigmatic Wakil.
And
Halajan,
the sixty-year-old den mother, whose long-hidden love affair breaks all the rules.
As these five women discover there's more to one another than meets the eye, they form a unique bond that will for ever change their lives and the lives of many others.
