Finding Nouf's Katya Hijazi and Nayir Sharqi return for another thrilling, fast-paced mystery that provides a rare and intimate look into women's lives in the Middle East. Women in Saudi Arabia are expected to lead quiet lives circumscribed by Islamic law and tradition. But Katya, one of the few women in the medical examiner's office, is determined to make her work mean something. When the body of a brutally beaten woman is found on the beach in Jeddah, the city's detectives are ready to dismiss the case as another unsolvable murder-chillingly common in a city where the veils of conservative Islam keep women as anonymous in life as this victim is in death. If this is another housemaid killed by her employer, finding the culprit will be all but impossible. Only Katya is convinced that the victim can be identified and her killer found. She calls upon her friend Nayir for help, and soon discovers that the dead girl was a young filmmaker named Leila, whose controversial documentaries earned her many enemies. With only the woman's clandestine footage as a guide, Katya and Nayir must confront the dark side of Jeddah that Leila struggled to expose: an underworld of prostitution, violence, exploitation, and jealously guarded secrets. Along the way, they form an unlikely alliance with an American woman whose husband has disappeared. Their growing search takes them from the city's car-clogged streets to the deadly vastness of the desert beyond.Binding Type: Paperback

Surprising amount of room!
I am so pleased with the interior space in the pockets of this purse. It's the perfect size to hold keys, phone, and lots of other junk a mom tends to accumulate! The only downfall is the lack of card-holder spaces...only 4 total slots. I purchased another small card holder apparatus to hold all of my necessities.

Perfect Mini Backpack for almost any occasion! Fits 11 inch ipad
Color: Black, Color: Black
Giving 5 🌟🌟 🌟🌟🌟, even if I havent used it yet! because it:
-arrived in perfect good packaging, protected and nothing missing.
-11 inch ipad fit with its own pocket(although it did reach the very top of the bag and can feel its corners)
- can fit 2 regular plastic bottled water on both sides
- coin pocket(tho I'll be putting coffee candies and mint instead)
- spacious enough for mini snacks or notebook/light books.
- has 2 pockets inside
- 3 pockets outside(1 at back, 2 at front)
Good value for money. Good for travels!(be using for camping). And I think its water resistant. It is a simple, cute, very functional bag for many occasions
Wish: that the strap would be a bit longer, although I did have extra 2.5 inches before it rested comfortably at my lower back.

Great Medium-Sized Backpack !
Color: Khaki
This is the best medium sized backpack ! Bought it mainly for that it fit my Kindle since a smaller backpack didn't and the multiple compartments (more than I need but easy access). Lightweight, water resistant, great value and the quality so far is great. I especially like the locking feature should I need it. It's much lighter than my travel purse (PacSafe that I would still use for travel, especially international.) The "security" feature is an added compartment for more local travel.

Great bag, short shoulder straps
Color: Black
Love the size and the many, many pockets. The quality is great, it's really well made. But the shoulder straps are short. Like for a little kids backpack short. I love the bag so much I'm getting a kit to extend the should straps. But yeah 5 stars for the bag, minus 2 for the short shoulder straps.
