Description

“On the planet of Irustan, one woman is fighting back…” “Zahra Ibsada is a talented medicant, and sees much of the joy in the lives of the women she heals – and much of the pain. She sees a wife brutally beaten, a prostitute suffering at the hands of her employers, and her best friend Kalen, a mother who is struggling to save her daughter from a cruel betrothal. Kalen begs Zahra for help, and although it goes against her medicant vows, Zahra reluctantly agrees. But this silent act of terrorism will have far-reaching consequences – for herself, and for all the women of her planet…”–BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
