Summary:
Dunia Ahmed lives an ordinary life--or she definitely used to. Now she's the subject of a true crime podcast. She's been missing for over a year, and no one knows if she's dead or alive. But her story has listeners obsessed, and people everywhere are sporting merch that demands "Find Dunia!" In the days before her disappearance, Dunia is a successful pharmacist living in New York. The daughter of Pakistani immigrants, she's coping with a broken engagement and the death of her mother. But then something happens that really shakes up her world: someone tries to murder her. When her would-be killer winds up dead, Dunia figures the worst is over. But then there's another attempt on her life...and another. And police suspect someone close to her may be the culprit. Dunia struggles to make sense of what's happening. And as childhood superstitions seep into her reality, she becomes convinced that someone--or something--is truly after her.
