Gwen, widowed after her husband, a naval aviator, was killed in a fiery aircraft accident, accepts an invitation from a stranger who is paying attention to her daughter, Daphne.

  The author of this book mixed the historical facts and legends of the ancient city of Ardeshir Khore (Gor); And with his powerful imagination, he managed to create a spectacular and rich story. He has depicted the emergence of the Sassanid dynasty and the disappearance of the people of this city during the Mongol period in the form of a pleasant narrative. 
  Sishma indirectly invites its readers to think about the habits of today's societies, from marijuana consumption to baseless beliefs and superstitions. 
  To all those who dream of freedom from the self-made prison of your mind, I recommend reading this interesting and informative story.
