Susan noticed him first on the plane from Paris to Baghdad – an aloof yet extremely handsome man who intrigued her greatly. However, when an emergency hit them, this man called Raoul Mehmet Bey, is the one to take care of her. They were tied in more ways than one, as she discovered that she was traveling to his place for employment. Although far from a polite gentleman, Susan is endlessly drawn to Raoul and finds herself at his mercy during dangerous adventures in the desert. Set in the beautiful landscapes of Iraq, the love story from the 20th century was written under Pamela Kent, a pseudonym of the prolific romance writer Ida Pollock.A must-read for fans of literary romance and surprising twists of fate.-
