Among the well-to-do families of Jeddah, Palestinian-born desert guide Nayir is an outsider. But when Nouf, the sixteen-year-old daughter of a wealthy Saudi dynasty, disappears just before her arranged marriage, Nayir is the man her family trust to bring her home. Days later Nouf's body is found in a desert wadi, but Nayir's task is not over; he feels compelled to uncover the disturbing circumstances surrounding her death. A compelling debut page-turner with a wonderful central character, which also gives a fascinating insight into the closed world of Saudi Arabia.
