In 1892, Englishwoman Elizabeth Summers arrives at the archaeological dig at Akhetaten when she finds
herself becoming part of a history that extends to the 18th Dynasty of Egypt.
Swept away
by desert raiders, the pale beauty finds herself in the arms of a powerful,
imposing man: Jabari bin Tarik Hassid, sheikh of the Khamsin warriors of the wind. Believed to
be the ancient Queen of centuries past, Elizabeth is swiftly betrothed to Jabari, in whom she
finds her destiny.
Betrayed by her uncle, who steals a sacred disk from Jabari's people, Elizabeth puts herself in
mortal danger when she attempts to reclaim it. As her loyalty is questioned by many Khamsin tribe
members, Jabari is certain she is innocent of their suspicions and sets out to rescue her
from execution by the evil leader of the Al-Hajid, Fareeq bin Hamid Talib.
