About this ebook

No betrayal cuts deeper than family. The favored daughter of wealthy silk-magnate, Yacoob Masoud, Samira lives a life of privilege and dreams of taking over her father's business. Elder brother, Mahmoud, struggles to earn their father's love while living under the shadow of a hidden family shame. As they stab and wrestle with one another for Yacoob's favor, will they go too far and do the unforgivable?  

 

As the popular uprising against Syrian dictator Bashir Assad becomes civil war, Samira and Mahmoud find themselves casualties of their own pride.

 

"[Mahmoud's] heartbreaking story is gripping, like a train wreck I can't stop reading about."

-- Jesse Simmons

"What You Meant for Evil is a riveting story. It is especially powerful as it illustrates so many of the struggles that Syrians have gone through over the last 10 years."

-- Jeffrey Hayes, author of Back to the Books! How much do the Bible and the Qur'an actually agree?
