Home fire is a story about three orphaned siblings and their struggle of living as Pakistani muslims in Britain. Their struggles are intensified due to their father, Adil Pasha, who was a Jihadist. When the siblings mother and grandmother later die  the oldest sister Isma is left to take care of her twin siblings Aneeka and Parvaiz. Things become complicated after Isma announces her move to the states for college and Aneeka and Parvaiz have to move out of their home and embark on their own paths. Parvaiz is persuaded into joining the same terrorist organization as his father which causes great pain to his sisters, especially his twin Aneeka. Aneeka dedicates herself to helping her brother out of his situation and goes to great lengths to do so. Aneeka successfully seduces the home secratary's son, Eamonn, in efforts to have him persuade his father into letting her brother come home but Parvaiz is killed before anything can be done.

There is Wembley, a London suburb where the three siblings grew up and where oone of the twins, Aneeka, still lives with Aunty Naseem. There is also Eamonn's apartment in Notting Hill where he and Aneeka begin and grow their relationship. The most problematic setting is Syria where the other twin, Parvaiz, goes to join ISIS without his family's knowledge. Finally, the last major setting in the story is Pakistan where the body of Parvaiz is taken and where Aneeka and Eamonn are killed as they plead to Karamat to let them bring him home.

Eamonn is the son of powerful British politician Karamat Lone and famous interior designer Terry Lone. As the son of two very wealthy, successful, and well-known people, Eamonn would be considered very high class. His family's wealth allows him to take time off to find himself and vacation in order to enjoy life, something his mother values highly. Despite his father being raised a Muslim, Eamonn and his family are not religious and are even seen as enemies to the Muslim community in Britain. Eamonn is also very disconnected to his Pakistani roots as are his father and sister. Eamonn is the only son to Karamat and Terry but he is constantly belittled by his father and is made to feel as less of a man than his sister, Emily. Karamat even refers to his daughter as the "Son he'd never had" (Shamsie, 2017, p.263). Karamat's lack of expectations and respect for his son bother Eamonn deeply and seem to effect his relationship with his father quite negatively.

Eamonn Lone has a lot power as the son of the British home secretary, his name gives him connections and constant security while his family’s wealth gives him power in a different way. Money can get you a lot in the world, it is the most powerful motivator. Eamonn has a lot of resources that regular people do not have but when it comes to his father, he does not have much power at all. Karamat does not take his son seriously and puts his duties as a Home secretary before his sons needs and wishes. Despite his best efforts, Eamonn cannot persuade his father into a different way of thinking when it comes to British Muslims. Even when it comes to Aneeka, the woman he loves, and her family.

I observed that wealth does not shield children from the pain inflicted by a father, or any parent and it certainly does not ensure an easy or problem free life. This is an important pattern because it defies the widespread belief that money can buy happiness and proves that all children and people need parental love and no amount of money can replace it. This pattern reveals that you can have all of the power and money in the world and still be unhappy or deal with serious problems. For example, all of Karamat and Terry Lone’s wealth could not keep them from losing their son, Eamonn because money does not guarantee safety or happiness.  This pattern can be seen in the characters of Imsa and Eamonn, despite Eamonn's immense wealth and power he has a lot of issues caused by his poor relationship with his father like his low self-esteem and built-up resentment. Similarly, Isma is still affected by her father's poor treatment of her and his absence in her life even as an adult. Their issues with their respective fathers are very different but they both suffer because of them. This pattern is also seen in the real world. Millionaires and supermodels suffer from depression and wealthy parents lose their kids because their money does not bring them happiness. We see kids of wealthy parents who are not content with their parents money because they need their love too and do not receive it.

Isma Pasha is a 28-year-old British Muslim of Pakistani descent who is completing her education a little later in life in the United States after having to raise her orphaned twin siblings. Isma is passionate about her faith and her education and has very strong opinions about British politics especially policy concerning people of Muslim faith or Pakistani descent. Isma had a close relationship to her sister Aneeka before having a falling out due their brother Parvaiz who causes Isma and her entire family trouble. Overall, Isma is a very mature and put together young women who has strong family and faith values.

Isma Pasha is strong and mature young women with strong faith in the religion of Islam. In accordance with her Muslim faith, Isma wears a hijab in public which she is proud of but often succumbs her to judgement from others who automatically assume she is overly prudent or associate her with terrorists. Isma loves her family, but she does not have a particularly close relationship to her siblings. Since they are each other’s best friends already they do not include her often. Unfortunately, Isma's father was a known Jihadist and he put his terrorist organization before his kids which hurt Isma deeply. Adil's absence in Isma's life hurt her emotionally but his acts continued to hurt her in every aspect of her life as an adult as well. Her ties to a terrorist affected the world view of her and her ability to travel and get accepted into schools and get jobs.

In terms of power, Isma Pasha is ranked very low on the scale. As a woman, especially as a woman of color, she lacks the power to find jobs easily or speak up because she is often not taken as seriously as men or even as seriously as white women. She does not receive the same level of respect as others. Due to her being the daughter of a jihadist killed in Guantanamo Bay she faces many hardships others do not. It is harder for her to do things as simple as traveling and she is more carefully watched by government officials which severely limits her privacy, but she lacks the power to do anything about it. Isma and her family also rank low on the financial scale which is another limit to her power. She lacks power to to do everything she might like to do because she simply cannot afford it. She is even forced to rent out her childhood home in order to get an education which forces her to displace her younger siblings. In the case of her younger siblings, Isma also lacks power over them. The twins have a tight bond that often excludes Isma, and they do not really see her as a person of authority, so they do not follow her wishes.
