Having relented to the ways of her people in Pakistan and married the rich older man to whom she was pledged against her will, Shabanu is now the victim of his family's blood feud and the malice of his other wives. Sequel to "Shabanu, Daughter of the Wind."

Review of 'Haveli' on 'Goodreads'

This isn't as good as Shabanu, to which it's a sequel, and it's pretty grim, but it's far above the typical standard of YA fiction and is full of fascinating cultural background about women's lives in Pakistan.
