Jane Downing

The Sultan's Daughter (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

It is 1866 and Zanzibar is momentarily quiet after a rebellion against the Sultan. Sayyida Salmé waits in the harem hoping to be forgiven for her part in the uprising against her brother. When she hears merchant Heinrich Ruete singing from across the narrow Stone Town street, Salmé lifts her veil to possibility.

Set against the backdrop of the slave trade and the impossible wealth of the Sultans of Zanzibar, Salmé's story of forbidden love unfolds dramatically and takes her further into exile. The Sultan's Daughter follows real life events. It is a story of great tenderness, and of great loss.
