What if you felt as if you'd cried all the colours away? The dazzling, heart-wrenching new story of friendship, loss, and identity from the author of international bestseller As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow. Joining an exclusive high school should be a great new start for Jihad after a family tragedy, but she's the only Muslim student there; her hijab and even her name make her new classmates suspicious. Only one person - Jamie - treats her with kindness, but Jihad can't help questioning his motives. It's hard to trust anyone when she meets indifference or hostility all around her. As tension mounts, her only comfort is found in the pages of her sketchbook. She is determined to focus on making it to art school and a bright future. Can Jihad become as resilient as the meaning of her name, and let the colour back into her life?
