Publisher's Summary

The honest, entertaining and life-affirming sequel to The Little Coffee Shop of Kabul, featuring the same loveable cast of characters, from internationally best-selling author Deborah Rodriguez.

In a little coffee shop in war-torn Kabul, five very different women unite for one important cause: to protect the women in Afghanistan. Now back home in the US, Sunny, the founder, is finding it difficult to settle and dreams of returning to her beloved coffee shop.

Shea is haunted by a traumatic event that makes her renounce her Afghan heritage. Yazmina, the coffee shop's new owner, wants to use her newfound security to help other women avoid the fate she narrowly escaped. Zara, promised in marriage to a violent man she's never met, arrives at the coffee shop seeking sanctuary. And Halajan, the grandmother still breaking all the rules, is secretly learning to drive....

Together these five women set out to change their lives and the lives of women in Afghanistan forever.

Perfect narration did justice to much loved characters

I read the first book but am so glad I listened to this one as the reader was able to bring my favourite characters alive. I was disappointed when the book was finished & can’t wait to read the next one.

A journey of emotions

Great picturesque story but also factual accounts of life under the Tailban. Narration was great changing the voice and accents to the character. Each character had a story that was worth listening to. Well done
