August 2021. Kabul has fallen.Within hours, the city becomes a deadly trap where every street can be an ambush and every glance, a threat.
Hannah, a Muslim woman, and her thirteen-year-old daughter Azahara race against time to reach the airport before the last way out closes for good.
Thousands of miles away, in London, Blake-a British Army lieutenant and Hannah's husband-can't hold them or protect them. All he can do is follow their escape through a screen, every message and every silence turning into agony.
Kabul is a geopolitical thriller and a family drama about the love that endures when everything else collapses. Will Blake manage to help them in time-or will the message every parent fears arrive first?
