On the planet of Irustan, one woman is fighting back . . .
Zahra IbSada is a talented medicant, and sees much of the joy in the lives
of the women she heals–and much of the pain. She sees a wife brutally
beaten, a prostitute suffering at the hands of her employers. And her best
friend Kalen, a mother who is struggling to save her daughter from a cruel
betrothal. Kalen begs Zahra for help, and although it goes against her
medicant vows, Zahra reluctantly agrees. But this silent act of terrorism
will have far-reaching consequences—for herself, and for all the women of
her planet . . .
