    Pomegranate Soup - Marsha Mehran
                        Debut

#2019AtoZChallenge - P
#MonthlyMotifChallenge - Diversity

I enjoyed this one and the Middle Eastern dishes that were talked about made me very hungry,  especially for baklava!!!!

Anyway, 3 sister escape Iran at the time of the revolution and take with them a terrible secret.  They end up in a small village in Ireland where they open a wonderful Iranian cafe.  At first, everyone is very suspicious and wary of them but the smells and tastes of their food work magic on the myriad of villagers .  Like Thomas, the local bar owner and town bully,  Danny, the shy grocer who believes in fairies, the Donnelly twins who always causes mischief,  Dervala, the housebound gossip,  just to name a few.

But is their past going to catch up with them?   And what will they do if it does?
