The Sigheh
by Suzanne Monroe
Zari Alavi doesn’t remember her turbulent childhood in post-revolutionary Iran or the father that she left there so many years ago. Suddenly, thirty years later, she finds herself on a plane to Teheran to cover the 2009 presidential elections. Within a week of landing, she’ll find herself married to a stranger, hunted by the government, and attempting a daring escape through impossible terrain.
