As punishment for her behavior, she is forced to leave her heartbroken family behind and go work at their estate. Amal is distraught but has faced setbacks before. So she summons her courage and begins navigating the complex rules of life as a servant, with all its attendant jealousies and pecking-order woes. Most troubling, though, is Amal's increasing awareness of the deadly measures the Khan family will go to in order to stay in control. It's clear that their hold over her village will never loosen as long as everyone is too afraid to challenge them--so if Amal is to have any chance of ensuring her loved ones' safety and winning back her freedom, she must find a way to work with the other servants to make it happen." -- $c Back cover 521 1 $a Ages 10 up. 586 $a Iowa Children's Choice Award, 2020. 650 0 $a Indentured servants $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Courage $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Conduct of life $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Pakistan $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Middle East $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Bildungsromans. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Iowa Children's Choice Award. $2 local 941 $a 17 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20240119021112.0 952 $l NWPC663 $d 20230720011008.0 952 $l VQPC384 $d 20230114015547.0 952 $l DMPC403 $d 20220906012652.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20220806014037.0 952 $l GYPE631 $d 20220405021551.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215025801.0 952 $l BIPB251 $d 20211215012641.0 952 $l BWPD851 $d 20210714015700.0 952 $l ZKPC437 $d 20210608010738.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20210402012145.0 952 $l W7PA017 $d 20201215010215.0 952 $l CWPB586 $d 20201105010207.0 952 $l JMPC081 $d 20200911011127.0 952 $l TVPD862 $d 20200824121012.0 952 $l JKPC771 $d 20200709010603.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20200602012916.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2322C0C45AC111EA8D3B9A1297128E48 994 $a C0 $b JUHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
