Deep in the mountain wilderness of the Hindu Kush, a 17-year-old English girl is brought to the primitive tribal kingdom of Shul to be sold as a slave.

Soon she is plunged into a new world, where she finds there are others who, like herself, are perhaps not what they seem to be. Life in England brings her strange adventures and a touching friendship, but also the heartbreak of love without hope.
