After the Taliban are toppled in Afghanistan, they regroup in the borders of Afghanistan and Pakistan, and come back to attack the NATO forces in the southern parts of the country, especially in the Helmand province.
The American NATO forces based in Helmand fight to win the war against the Taliban and also to win over the local population, therefore they employ the Afghan interpreters to help them in connecting them with the local Afghans. These interpreters, with their basic knowledge of English, play a big role in this war. They join the American soldiers on their patrols and they join them when they go to meet the local people, or the Afghan officials.
The Taliban see the interpreters as infidels and traitors and they are after the interpreters and their families to catch and behead them, as they do so with many interpreters and their families. In this story Shabir Khan is an interpreter who is from Kabul. Mullah Aslam is the Taliban leader who is from Helmand, and he is after Shabir and his colleagues to catch them and behead them, until one day when Shabir and his interpreter friend, Sami, encounter a Taliban checkpoint. In the cover of a stone, Shabir and Sami fire the rest of their bullets, and keep one bullet each.

From Publishers Weekly
Full-figured investigator Josephine Fuller, who looks into charities for her philanthropist employer, finds herself embroiled in kidnapping and murder in her second, darker outing (after Larger Than Death). When her San Diego patron, Alicia Madrone, asks Jo to look into how Amy Russo, daughter of an old friend, is involved in the spurious-sounding Feather Heart Project, Jo expects the assignment to be simple. But she realizes otherwise after meeting Amy's lascivious, retired admiral father and his two buddies and keepers, as well as Amy's Bible-thumping, career navy brother, her chess-genius daughter and her biology professor husband. When the admiral is abducted and one of his buddies is found dead, Jo begins to piece together the subtleties of Amy's family relationships. As Jo hears of missing secret military records and of the admiral's abysmal treatment of his children, she wonders if the perpetrators aren't those nearest to him. Because it opens with Jo grieving over the death of her best friend and dwells on the affairs of a dysfunctional family, this story will disappoint those expecting a witty, lighthearted mystery like Larger Than Death; overcomplicated, it may disappoint others as well. Agent, Michele G. Rubin at Writer's House. (Apr.)

From Library Journal
Second in a series begun in paperback with Larger Than Life, this title spotlights "plus-size" heroine Josephine Fuller, who performs "philanthropic troubleshooting" for a rich, elderly San Diego woman, Mrs. Madrone. In addition to checking out the grant-worthiness of a female sculptor, Josephine must investigate a questionable grief-counseling organization that seems to have cast a spell on the granddaughter of Mrs. Madrone's friend. Unfortunately, murder and kidnapping complicate Josephine's task--as does the arrival of her would-be significant other. Josephine moves with alacrity (despite her size), interrogates with panache, and narrates with a dry humor. Recommended.
