When sixteen-year-old Nouf goes missing, her prominent family calls on Nayir al-Sharqi, a pious desert guide, to lead the search party. Ten days later, just as Nayir is about to give up in frustration, her body is discovered by anonymous desert travelers. But when the coroner's office determines that Nouf died not of dehydration but from drowning, and her family seems suspiciously uninterested in getting at the truth, Nayir takes it upon himself to find out what really happened. He quickly realizes that if he wants to gain access to the hidden world of women, he will have to join forces with Katya Hijazi, a lab worker at the coroner's office who is bold enough to bare her face and to work in public. Their partnership challenges Nayir, as he confronts his desire for female companionship and the limitations imposed by his beliefs. Fast-paced and utterly transporting, "Finding Nouf "is a riveting literary mystery that offers an unprecedented window into Saudi Arabia and the lives of men and women there.

I never knew on the other side of the world, women are so oppressed. Now I know more about Saudi Arabia. It might be biased, since the author only lived there for two years. The ending seems abrupt to me. but overall, it's a good detective story. I stayed up until 2am to have finished reading it.
