General fiction (Children's&YA)

This is a unique and compelling story told from the perspective of a young teen living in an overseas diplomatic compound, facing a new culture, school, and friends, but also a deteriorating political situation, made worse in a world where religious differences are deep and dangerous.

Set in Pakistan, this is the story of a teen girl living with her mother and siblings in a diplomatic compound. As if getting used to another new country and set of customs and friends isn't enough, she must cope with an increasingly tense political situation that becomes dangerous with alarming speed. Her life and those of her sister and brother depend on her resourcefulness and the unexpected help of an enigmatic Muslim classmate.

Reviews for An Infidel In Paradise

. . . I hope every teen reads this book, and that everyone who knows a teen reads it. An Infidel in Paradise was a pleasure to read (even if it did make me cry more than once), and I will definitely be keeping my eye out for more work by S.J. Laidlaw. <br> -About.com <br>
