She evaluates the role of culture and tradition in perpetuating honor killings, explores the fight for women's rights through international human rights frameworks, activism, and legal reforms, and presents compelling case studies from Pakistan, India, and Western countries.

This thought-provoking book sheds light on a critical issue and calls for collective action towards sustainable change.
