Each of them is haunted by a darkness which threatens to consume them and those around them.An assassin has been dispatched; a child-snatcher is on the prowl and a ruthless gang is closing in. Unique, alienated and vulnerable, the hidden ones must confront these darknesses with their hidden lights. No fear is upon them; nor shall they grieve. This debut novel by Novid Shaid weaves together the genres of supernatural, mystery and Sufi mysticism. Fast-paced, haunting and moving, this tale was written as a consequence of the author's travels and meetings with remarkable people around the world. Inspiration was also drawn from an eclectic range of works including Stephen King's \"The Green Mile\", Ibn Al Arabi's \"Sufis of Andalucia\" and Yann Martell's \"The Life of Pi\".\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Novid Shaid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Novid Shaid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.37d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780993044809\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNovid Shaid is an English teacher from the UK.
