Love and Faith: Book One: "What Honour is there in Honour Killing?" - John Hartig - Bog

Bag om Love and Faith: Book One: "What Honour is there in Honour Killing?"

Symon Schröder, a scenery photographer, stumbles across a dead woman in the woods off The Bruce Trail, near Ball's Falls, Ontario. Khalisa is the victim of an honor killing committed by her own brother, Ahmad, because neither he nor the parents wanted her to date Christopher, a "white infidel". Ahmad gets away with the crime for almost 2 years. He takes computer classes at Mohawk College in Hamilton. During this time, he kills an older lady, Carmen, who was getting better marks than him in a class and who gets hired instead of him for a job. Symon, in the meantime, is also registered in a web design class at Mohawk College and gets to know Carmen at coffee breaks. At one point, Symon plucks up enough courage to go back to the scene of the crime at Ball's Falls where he pokes around in the dirt and digs up a silver necklace which belonged to Khalisa. The inscription reads, "To Khalisa, Love Christopher". This is enough of a clue which eventually leads to Ahmad as the killer. The parents empty their bank account and Ahmad escapes to Turkey where he crosses the border to join ISIS.
