Ayesha's Gift: A daughter's search for the truth about her father

I began thinking I was reading a novel, then realised as I went on that it was based in truth. It opened my eyes to the very different ways of life in Pakistan and the difficulties encountered by British born children of Pakistani parents in trying to bridge a wide divide.

Thank you Martin, I love your work. This novel gives so much new information not only about very different culture of Pakistan, but also about life of emigrants. How difficult it is to build a new life in a different country! How intolerant we are to all hard working foreigners! It definitively is thoughts provoking book.

Just finished this and enjoyed it very much. Martin Sixsmith brings together the anger and frustration of losing a loved one in mysterious circumstances and also the dangers you have to endure to learn the truth

A real-life murder mystery wrapped up in some uncomfortable truths about both the British and Pakistani cultures. Riveting from beginning to end.

V well written, gripping, moving, v sad, haunting. Could not put it down and finished reading the book in record time.

I couldn't put the book down. Had to know what happens next. Very interesting story. Found the corruption in Pakistan described here deeply disturbing, I had no idea.

Another amazing book by Martin Sixsmith. You just can’t put it down. I felt as if I was beside him on his sometimes dangerous journey in search of the truth. Fabulous

Well written tale. An interesting insight into different cultures and some of the problems experienced by young people assimilating into a different culture whilst being aware of their own heritage.
