The Amulet

This novella is the prequel to the Sheikhs of the Golden Triangle series.
Oonagh, a powerful witch, crafts an amulet for her daughter Zoe's wedding to the Crown Prince of Zahiria. The amulet will protect her husband's kingdom. But Zoe is a petulant, selfish girl who ignores her mother and despises her husband. She becomes queen and gives birth to a royal son, as her mother predicted. Then she falls in love with a stranger who desires a kingdom of his own and flees with him, leaving husband, son and amulet behind. Her new husband creates the kingdom of Burindi, and becomes consumed by his obsession to possess the amulet he believes is rightfully his.
A sacrifice was made and a high price was paid in the crafting of the elusive amulet. A terrible wrong must be made right again before peace can settle in the region. Until then, the kingdoms of the Golden Triangle continue to suffer a series of betrayals, intrigues and wars.
Jumping ahead several generations, we glimpse Sheikh Jacobo of Zahiria, who is still plagued by the desire to bring peace to his kingdom. When Princess Safir of Burindi steals his most precious treasures, and threatens the very core of his kingdom's existence, will a new war be unavoidable?
