Elegant and evocative ... A powerful exploration of the clash between society, family and faith in the modern world' Guardian
'There is high, high music in the air at the end of Home Fire' New York Times
Isma is free. After years spent raising her twin siblings in the wake of their mother's death, she is finally studying in America, resuming a dream long deferred. But she can't stop worrying about Aneeka, her beautiful, headstrong sister back in London - or their brother, Parvaiz, who's disappeared in pursuit of his own dream: to prove himself to the dark legacy of the jihadist father he never knew.
