When The Moon Is Low

In Kabul, Fereiba finds love in an arranged marriage, but when the Taliban rises to power and her family becomes the target of the new fundamentalist regime, she is forced to flee with her three children. Her one hope for survival: to seek refuge with her sister's family in London. Traveling with forged papers and depending on the kindness of strangers, Fereiba and the children begin a harrowing journey as refugees. Their fate takes a frightening turn when Fereiba's teenage son, Salem, becomes separated from the rest of the family. Fereiba has no choice but to continue on with only her daughter and baby--but mother and son will cross perilous borders risking their lives in the hope of finding a place where they can be reunited.
