From Bosnia with Love
A Novel and a Five Year Odyssey




                              by Javed Mohammed
“A powerful narrative”
“An action-adventure story
with romance through time
and place.”
It appears like a replay of the
Holocaust, except it is 1992
I do it because I can
Who’s going to stop me?
Sam Murad’s conscience is
jolted by the genocide
When the Crescent fell to earth
He crossed the Bridge on the
Neretva river
He went as a peacekeeper
But is drawn into the
conflict
They told him, “If you can
see the hills, the hills can
see you”
The Serbs and Croats ethnically
cleanse Bosnia of its Muslims
What happened we were neighbors?

While the world looked on
Sam forms an attachment with
the Bosnian people
And in particular with a
beautiful Bosnian sharpshooter
Emira Petrovic.
Along with their friend Mehmet,
they go on an adventure
It takes them from Sarajevo
To the Srebrenica Concentration
camps
Safe Haven?
Not!
Later they relive the past when
the conflict spreads
When Kosovars are forced from
their homes by the Serbs
And the mosques no longer call
the faithful to prayer
They run for their lives
And beg for them too
Who will hear their cries?
Sam, Mehmet, Emira & the KLA
go on the offensive
They pass through the Accursed
Mountains
In this epic journey Sam realizes
         the value of life
And if he can save just one life
That of his beloved Emira
It is as if he has saved all
humanity
Buy It!
Read It!
Tell others about it!
