The Secrets of Morocco: Politics and Power
Secret Son by Laila Lalami is set in modern-day Casablanca in Morocco. Throughout the book, you get a taste of the life lived by the poor in their slums and shanty towns, but also you get to understand the life of the wealthy. I know that this situation exists in a lot of developing countries, but to see a city where both extremes exist in parallel, is still shocking.

What makes this book more interesting is that our protagonist, Youssef has a foot in both of these worlds. He has grown up in the slums of Casablanca where his mother and friends are but, like any young person he wants more and is drawn towards the skyscrapers and wealth on the other side of the city. Throughout the book, we seek this battle being fought inside Youssef as he tries to balance striving for what he wants with being grateful for what he already has.

What a unique story and nothing like anything I've read before. You are thrown into the middle of a terrorist attack at the beginning of the story and not knowing whether she is going to survive or not, Cara confides her deepest secrets to the young lady who plucked her to safety. Secrets that should have stayed hidden as they are now used against her.

The writing style is easy to read and flows really well with each chapter written from the perspectives of the 2 main characters - Cara and Amy - which works extremely well for this book and the story. I did feel there was a bit of a lull in the middle but it certainly makes up for it as we move towards the thrilling conclusion.

Never having read anything by these authors before (Paul Perry and Karen Gillece ), I will most certainly keep my eyes open in future and thank you to the Publisher, Penguin UK - Michael Joseph, and NetGalley for once again introducing me to yet another great book that would likely have passed me by.
