博客來One girl’s truth. One community’s silence. One fight for survival.
In Panah (Refuge), Aakh crafts a haunting and courageous tale of resilience, rebellion, and the pursuit of justice. Based on real experiences, this gripping novel follows Maiza, a Canadian-born daughter of Pakistani immigrants, as she becomes the target of a brutal honour-based conspiracy.
Dragged from the freedom of Canada into the heart of a remote tribal village, Maiza is forced into silence and submission. But when she chooses to speak out about a dark secret-one that could shatter her family’s reputation-her life spirals into danger. As societal expectations collide with her unyielding desire for freedom, Maiza must navigate a world of deception, patriarchy, and moral conflict, where survival means defying everything she’s been told to obey.
Powerful, emotional, and deeply relevant, Panah is not just a story-it’s a voice for every woman silenced by tradition, and every soul seeking refuge from injustice. With vivid storytelling and raw authenticity, Aakh delivers a literary call to action that resonates beyond borders.
Perfect for readers of Khaled Hosseini, Elif Shafak, and real-life accounts of honour-based violence.
