Guns and Saffron

Yakub is a seasoned militant who will do anything to free Kashmir. And he really means anything.


His handler, Major Khaleel, a renegade officer in Pakistan’s intelligence service, wants vengeance for the killing of his mentor, bin Laden, which drives him to devise a terrorist attack codenamed Mission M - the mother of all paybacks.


Hassan, Yakub’s nephew and the orphan of a militant, is entrusted with the responsibility of fulfilling Mission M to avenge his father.


Shehed, Hassan’s lover, is a strong-willed woman who tries to stop him. But can she?


And Rafi is a habitual crook who is always in the wrong place at the wrong time.


Can Mission M be stopped or will bin Laden speak from his grave…


A tense and fascinating novel of conflict, both political and personal, and the extraordinary lengths people will go to protect those they love.


Note from the author:

I write because silence is not an option. At the same time, my novels brim with hope in addition to having a riveting plot. My debut novel, which was published by a boutique publisher in Europe some years ago, was seen to be refreshing. 

 

My recent novel “Guns and Saffron” has received exceptionally good reviews on NetGalley and Goodreads saying that it is addictive, fresh and enlightening. My latest novel, The Songbirds, a love story, is due to be released on Amazon by the end of March 2020.

 

I hope you enjoy reading my novels.
