内容简介

Set against the bustling backdrop of New York City and the exotic splendour of Jordan, Mosaic is a story of love and betrayal, of a clash of cultures and traditions - and one woman's struggle to recapture her life. Like many working mothers, Dina Ahmed has become adept at juggling her family life with her work commitments. The owner of Mosaic, the thriving floral design business she has worked hard to establish, Dina has been blessed with success, beauty and, most importantly, a happy family. But one fateful day she returns to her lavish Upper East Side home to discover that her six-year-old twins have vanished - and very suddenly, her once comfortable life is turned upside down. It is only after many desperate phone calls - and anxious hours spent piecing the puzzle together - that Dina is forced to accept the terrible truth: her husband, Karim, has snatched the twins and has returned to Jordon with them to begin a new life. Distraught but determined to fight for her children, Dina turns to her friends, Emmeline and Sarah - and to John Constantine, the one man she must learn to trust if she can ever hope to rebuild her shattered life. -Set against the bustling backdrop of New York City and the exotic splendour of Jordan, Mosaic is a story of love and betrayal, of a clash of cultures and traditions - and one woman's struggle to recapture her life.
