In his search for greater truths, Hamasa goes into long and dense musings about religion and God, even coming up with his own revised version of The Lords Prayer. The focus of the story, however shifts into an entirely different gear when Hamasa makes a remarkable discovery, involving ancient documents, which sends him on a perilous quest to find answers to ages old questions. However, it is during interrogation that he recounts his life: his early upbringing amongst the Taliban his teenage years in Canada and the crazy antics of his posturing teenage friends, often with tragic consequences how he fell in love, and that is just the start of his extraordinary life. The action begins with the adult Hamasa being interrogated in the USA, by whom or why, we don't initially know. The plot is complex, filled with twists, turns and hidden depths, because despite Hamasa's hard-hitting rants (under interrogation) about society's inequalities, the lure of extremism and radicalisation, fundamentally his is a spiritual journey.
