An unforgettable and inspiring friendship story set against the Partition of India from the author of Safiyyah's War.

Three miracle babies are born on the same day, they become best friends. But on their twelfth birthday, Jahan, Ravi and Lakshmi’s lives are about to change forever. The British announce Indian independence and draw lines of Partition that tear apart the country, and the friends. One of them flees, one of them disappears, and the other is left wondering, could a miracle bring them back together?

‘Packed with sensory details … the novel’s central thrust remain current: that religious and ethnic groups are pitted against one another by the powers that be; that hope and friendship matter’ Observer

‘Beautifully written, gripping and affecting’ The Bookseller, Buyer’s Guide, Highlight of the Season

‘Hiba Noor Khan has written another masterclass in historical fiction … an absolute must read’ LoveReading4Kids
