Two fugitives from a murder in Damascus flee across the desert toward the Mountains of Death, ringed by quicksand and known only from storytellers’ legends. There a band of outlaws lives under the spell of Zarah, a mocking beauty with golden hair who delights in their contests of spear and rifle, and in setting men against one another.
A lurid desert romance in the vein of The Sheik, its exoticism and attitudes very much those of the early 1920s. Download the free EPUB.
