Publisher's Synopsis
In the gritty banlieues of Paris, Karim struggles to support his family while trying to stay true to his Muslim faith. Born to immigrant parents, he finds himself caught between Islamic teachings and the dangerous allure of local street gangs, who covet his engineering skills for criminal ventures. As desperation mounts, the promise of power and easy money pulls him deeper into a world of bank heists. With each crime, his moral compass falters. When a meticulously planned job unravels and the police close in, Karim faces a heart-stopping choice: embrace a life of crime or seek redemption by reconnecting with his roots. In a moment of clarity, he realizes that true salvation lies not in fleeting respect but in mending the family bonds he has fractured in his relentless pursuit of power.
