The Hidden Ones

By Novid Shaid

They pass us on the street; they serve us in shops; they go to our schools, but their profound realities are hidden...They are the hidden ones and the light that protects them ensures that they will remain hidden until the end of time.Layla, Khadim and Rose live in an average town in the UK. Each of them is haunted by a darkness which threatens to consume them and those around them.An assassin has been dispatched; a child-snatcher is on the prowl and a ruthless gang is closing in. Unique, alienated and vulnerable, the hidden ones must confront these darknesses with their hidden lights. No fear is upon them; nor shall they grieve. This debut novel by Novid Shaid weaves together the genres of supernatural, mystery and Sufi mysticism. Fast-paced, haunting and moving, this tale was written as a consequence of the author's travels and meetings with remarkable people around the world. Inspiration was also drawn from an eclectic range of works including Stephen King's "The Green Mile", Ibn Al Arabi's "Sufis of Andalucia" and Yann Martell's "The Life of Pi".
