Zarah the Cruel

The daughter of an outlaw sheikh. The Arabian desert as her kingdom. Zarah was born into defiance, raised among betrayal in a land where only the ruthless survive. She is beautiful, but beauty is merely her weapon. Her true power lies in an ambition that even her father fears, a will tempered in the crucible of lawlessness. In a world of shifting alliances and clashing cultures, where women are property and power belongs to men with swords, Zarah refuses to be owned or discarded. She will take what she wants, whatever the cost. This early 20th century novel pulsates with a fierce, unapologetic heroine who fights against every constraint of her world. For readers who crave adventure, danger, and a woman who refuses to be tamed.
