She is already anxious when her parents send her to stay with her Grandpa Yusuf, whose conservative house rules are almost as unbearable as the loneliness she feels at home. Yusuf's lifestyle does not gel with Rubi's. But when she finds him scared and confused one night, it becomes clear that there's more to her grandfather than Rubi ever considered. As Yusuf grapples with the past, Rubi is determined to save him. But the memories that are recovered are more painful than she could have imagined. Ramadan, 2017.
