Sara Hashem is an American-Egyptian writer from Southern California, where she spent many sunny days holed up indoors with a book. Her love for fantasy and magical realms emerged during the two years her family lived in Egypt. Her debut novel, The Jasad Heir, the first installment in her Egyptian-inspired adult fantasy duology The Scorched Throne, has received many accolades since its publication, including a starred review from Publishers Weekly. Where No Shadow Stays is Sara's YA debut.
