Syria! The center of the Middle East powder keg, it’s the setting for No Blossoms on the Pistachio Trees. As civil strife there increases, Professor Elias Jabril discovers both unexpected hope for his personal faith and a surprising romance that blossoms into love. However, heartache soon follows as Jabril’s wife and son are irreversibly swept into the violence. Meanwhile, he and two engineers are conscripted by the Assad regime to conduct a secret security evaluation of dams on the Euphrates River—an assignment that ultimately reveals a clandestine operation, results in his abduction, and threatens to destroy everyone he loves. Will the professor yield to the demands of his captors and kill thousands, or will logic—and another chance at love—prevail?
