A girl who escapes from Afganistan and returns to England.
This is another well written, intelligent novel about a young woman's adventures. For anyone who enjoys Madeline Brent's novels, you might be interested to know that this is the pseudonym of Peter O'Donnell, who wrote the "Modesty Blaise" novels and, as far as I know, still creates the comic strip of the same name, published in England. Although the subject material is very different - spy adventure rather than romance, the writing style has the same high quality, intricate plotting, and unexpected turns of events.
