In a little coffee shop in one of the most dangerous places on earth, five very different women come together.Sunny, the proud proprietor, who needs an ingenious plan - and fast - to keep her café and customers safe...Yazminda, a young pregnant woman stolen from her remote village and now abandoned on Kabul's violent streets ...Candace, a wealthy American who has finally left her husband for her Afghan lover, the enigmatic Wakil ...Isabel, a determined journalist with a secret that might keep her from the biggest story of her life...And Halajan, the sixty-year-old den mother, whose long-hidden love affair breaks all the rules.As these five discover there's more to one another than meets the eye, they form a unique bond that will for ever change their lives and the lives of many others. - See more at: http://www.randomhouse.com.au/books/deborah-rodriguez/the-little-coffee-shop-of-kabul-9781742753904.aspx#sthash.WZA0QXjP.dpuf
