This book is about a terrorist bombing in Delhi, India, where two young boys were killed and how it affected the victims, the perpetrator, and their families.

I had a hard time getting into this book as the plot seemed to meander a lot (although it did come together somewhat in the end).  I think I may have lost it with all the Indian place names but I also didn’t connect very well with the characters.  The portrayal of the characters seemed very flat.  It was an interesting subject but I wish the delivery could have been better.
