“A captivating coming-of-age novel that is, by turns, funny and sad and elegiac” (Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times) about two best friends as their post-grad lives diverge—one into liberal academia, the other into the American military occupation of Iraq. On a summer night in 2004...

In a corrupted Cahraman, Ada is back on the streets, struggling to save her friends and the kingdom from the fallout of her devastating mistake. The only way to redeem herself is to put things back as they were, but that seems impossible when her enemy is all-powerful. When Cyrus and her friends escape, their reunion turns bittersweet as her part in Nariman’s takeover is exposed. Now that Cyrus no longer trusts her, there is only one thing that could fix everything: the lamp.

One week. Five contestants. One prince. A devastating decision. Before, she avoided elimination. Now, she must win. Chosen as one of the final five in the bride search, Ada has one last chance to find the golden lamp and save her family. Yet with Cyrus no longer her partner-in-crime, but her target, her plans unravel, tearing her between duty and desire. Now she has one week to pass three increasingly difficult tests fit for a queen.

In the exam of life, not everybody gets the same questions. Even though the questions are the same, the answers are not the same. Every life is unique. But, there is one common thing in all lives. Nobody is fully happy. The current story is an example of that.
