Ashes and Jasmine: Survival in the Shadow of Nuclear Threats Between India and Pakistan
By Zara Mirza

As long-simmering tensions between India and Pakistan ignite into open conflict, two ordinary civilians are thrust into an extraordinary fight for survival.

Hafsa, a young teacher in Lahore, and Syed, a journalist in Delhi, have never met-but their lives are about to converge in the wake of political missteps, military escalations, and a world teetering on the edge of nuclear war. Amid blackouts, drone strikes, and unraveling civil order, both must make impossible choices to protect what matters most.

Told through alternating perspectives and grounded in real-world events, Survival in the Shadow of Nuclear Threats Between India and Pakistan is a gripping, character-driven novella that explores the human cost of conflict. Through moments of loss, courage, and unexpected hope, Zara Mirza paints a haunting yet compassionate portrait of those caught between nations, headlines, and history.

Perfect for fans of political thrillers, dystopian fiction, and powerful survival stories, this book is a timely reminder of how fragile peace can be-and how resilient the human spirit truly is.
