The 1970s are a time of remarkable promise under the leadership of people like Sardar Daoud, Afghanistan's progressive president, and Sitara's beloved father, his right-hand man. But the ten-year-old Sitara's world is shattered when communists stage a coup, assassinating the president and Sitara's entire family. Only she survives. Smuggled out of the palace by a guard named Shair, Sitara finds her way to the home of a female American diplomat, who adopts her and raises her in America. In her new country, Sitara takes on a new name, Aryana Shepherd, and throws herself into her studies, eventually becoming a renowned surgeon. A survivor, Aryana has refused to look back, choosing instead to bury the trauma and devastating loss she endured. 541 $d 20230308. 600 1 $a Shepherd, Aryana $c (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Women $z Afghanistan $v Fiction. 650 $a Survival $v Fiction. 650 $a Women surgeons $v Fiction. 650 7 $a New York (State) $z Fiction. 651 $a Kabul (Afghanistan) $v Fiction. 651 $a Afghanistan $v Fiction. 651 $a Afghanistan $x History $y Saur Revolution, 1978 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction.) 655 7 $a Historical fiction. 655 7 $a Novels. 655 7 $a Compact discs. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. 700 $a Marno, Mozhan, $e narrator. 941 $a 2 945 $a cda 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010021437.0 952 $l GPPC641 $d 20230531010349.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7B77B202FF7811EDA2DF7E5E26ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
