Holy wow. I did not expect this from a debut. Hashem is about to be a name on SFF readers’ lips for quite some time to come. 

Hashem writes complex, nuanced, real characters who do not easily follow tropes. She also keeps the reader guessing about what turn is coming around the next corner. Quite a page turner, I will definitely be recommending this one far and wide. 

Honored that I got to moderate a panel with her on it during 2023 Indie Ink Awards conference.
