An Abyss in the Soul

Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh, is where wealth abounds and where the adolescent generation has a taste for the dark, seedy world of foreign, exotic drugs. Zaynah Qadir Mahmud chronicles her in-depth experiences with close associates of Bangladesh's fraternity society, which has been traditionally overlooked by affluent parents.

Mahmud's in-depth inspection of this underground world, which she refers to as an "unstoppable cruel force of nature," offers valuable lessons for change and transformation.
