Mortals rule the desert nation of Miraji, but mythical beasts still roam the wild and remote areas, and rumor has it that somewhere, djinn still perform their magic. For humans, itâs an unforgiving place, especially if youâre poor, orphaned, or female. Amani AlâHiza is all three. Sheâs a gifted gunslinger with perfect aim, but she canât shoot her way out of Dustwalk, the back-country town where sheâs destined to wind up wed or dead.
Then she meets Jin, a rakish foreigner, in a shooting contest, and sees him as the perfect escape route. But though sheâs spent years dreaming of leaving Dustwalk, she never imagined sheâd gallop away on mythical horseâor that it would take a foreign fugitive to show her the heart of the desert she thought she knew.
This startlingly original Middle-East-meets-Wild-West fantasy reveals what happens when a dream deferred explodesâin the fires of rebellion, of romantic passion, and the all-consuming inferno of a girl finally embracing her power.
