Following the events of In Search of An Oasis, Indra and Iskandar find themselves at a crossroad. Though faraway in Singapore, the shadows of their past in Jordan reach out to haunt them in the present. Iskandar finds himself torn between the Sheikh’s deviant teachings and his own moral conscience. Indra struggles to come to terms with his actions in Jordan and seeks a way to resolve his guilt. Amidst the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the two cousins must travel the path of redemption to rediscover the meaning of humanity and religiosity, no matter how far the journey takes them. Even to the golden oasis that is Petra.
“In the time of frustration and injustices felt by many Muslims across the world, the novel reminds us to return to our conscience and Islam’s core advocation of peace while keeping on fighting for what is right. This is a must-read.”
