When their underground transport arrives at the rendezvous point, chaos ensues, and Fadi is left dragging his younger sister Mariam through the crush of people.\n\nBut Mariam accidentally lets go of his hand and becomes lost in the crowd, just as Fadi is snatched up into the truck. With Taliban soldiers closing in, the truck speeds away, leaving Mariam behind. Adjusting to life in the United States isn’t easy for Fadi’s family, and as the events of September 11 unfold, the prospects of locating Mariam in a war-torn Afghanistan seem slim.\n\nWhen a photography competition with a grand prize trip to India is announced, Fadi sees his chance to return to Afghanistan and find his sister. But can one photo really bring Mariam home?\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1442401958\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 31UE34000047_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Senzai, N.
