Dark moon

Esra Shabo has turned her back on her strict religious upbringing and her parents and tries to write her own life story. She is doing quite well until her younger sister comes knocking in panic. Nalan is in trouble. Their father wants to marry Nalan off to a man who raped her and impregnated her. Esra loses her cool. Prepared to do anything to pay for a clandestine abortion for Nalan, Esra lets herself be persuaded by a criminal to act as bait to blackmail a well-known politician. "Dark "Moon" is not only a thrilling page-turner, but also a story of youthful exuberance and poignant helplessness. Of unconditional love that is endearing but at the same time suffocating.
