Synopsis
Like other young Muslim girls of 18, Halima has moved with her family to London and her horizons are beginning to expand. Then, just as she is about to start university, she discovers her father's plan: to marry her to the son of a distant relation in Pakistan who once did him a favour. Halima is to be the repayment of the debt. And it's payback time... This title is also available as an ebook, in either Kindle, ePub or Adobe ebook editions

Newspapers & Magazines
A powerful, moving read. || A beautifully written and powerful story filled with drama, angst and danger which readers will not only find accessible but very engaging. || Payback gives a welcome and often gripping airing to this topical issue, examining concepts of family honour, religion, love and the place of women in society in an accessible way. || This is contemporary novel-writing at its most relevant. || 'A really good book with a strong storyline and lots of gripping description.' Erin Forrest, Craigmount High
