Great book; a quick read that takes place in Pakistan. Drugs, murder, love and obsession. Need I say more? Looking into the culture of Pakistan both affluent and not is an added bonus.

This book is awesome because it combines everything I love in a book... sex, drugs, another countries culture.. you learn a little and indulge in a little naughtiness, too!! Also on the Oprah bookclub list. Just a great story!

A young Pakistani man loses his bank job, after which his life spirals out of control. I found it initially difficult to sink my teeth into, but am glad that I was patient, as it soon became a very good and fast-paced read.

Contemporary Pakistan is the setting for this interesting novel.
