A tale of rage and betrayal, where friendship and loyalty overcome incredible odds, takes the readers deep into the historical streets of Lahore, Pakistan.\u003cp\u003eThis is a remarkable, heartbreaking story of a chance encounter between three runaway children, their resolve to survive on their own, and the communal bond they create to fight a common enemy. It is about enduring social injustice, facing the dangers lurking in the streets, hoping to find love even in the harshest of circumstances, and perseverance for survival.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the few Pakistan novels to be written in English, The One Hundred tells a profound story of friendship, family, and love against the background of a true event that has not been told in fiction before.
