Are the signs real? Does God talk to us? Can we murder the voice of conscience? The heaviest weight is that of a burdened soul – a weight crushing upon the shoulders of Abdur Rehman. Divulgence from his past kept haunting him during all his years abroad, and nothing could bring him solace until he returned to his homeland to find answers to his restiveness.

While on his mission of self-discovery, our Hero is met with a stark reality of life; Justice Demands Sacrifice.

Intertwined with love, passion, tradition and redemption, “Shroud of Honor” brings to its readers a heart-wrenching tale of a war within that is won yet lost all at once.

weaving the plot while channeling local flavors in an old story with contemporary understanding is a difficult task to achieve. The story has all these elements. It would be justified to state that the story shows serious potential

Set in the cold valley of Quetta and the suburbs, Shroud of Honor is a tale of unfulfilled love, parental and societal pressure and the fight with one’s own demons. The story moves smoothly from a small village to England and back to that village.
The whole story gives one an insight of the local Pakhtun culture and its values along with the psychological picture of a young, studious lawyer who was ricocheting between the societal principals and his emotions; between wrong and right.
