Simultaneous eBook. - Grand Central Pub
In this mesmerizing novel, a wealthy young boy searching for his mother teams up with a fiery jinn princess to battle in a tournament of heirsâand try to keep his life from changing forever.
Twelve-year-old Amir is one of the heirs to the Rafiq Bricks Company, a wealthy brick kiln business in Pakistanâexcept he wants none of it. Seeing straight through the jeweled smiles and transactional conversations, Amir would rather spend time in the courtyard garden, where he can almost feel his missing motherâs presence again.Â
Â
Amir is devastated when his baba announces plans to remarry by the end of the summer, dropping all searches to find Amirâs mother. Itâs all a business move, just like everything else in his life. His mother was the only one who allowed him to feel normal, but the last anyoneâs seen of her was a year ago.
Â
But Amir isnât ready to give up yetâdetermined to find his mother before his life changes forever, Amir teams up with a high-spirited, wide-eyed, shape-shifting jinn princess named Shamsa. His exact opposite. The two make a dealâShamsa will help Amir navigate the twisty and mysterious realm of jinn, and in exchange Amir must use his wits to help Shamsa win a tournament of heirs and put her on the throne.Â
Â
Amir and Shamsa must contend with silver-tongued tricksters and magical rivals, and a truth far more devastating than Amir ever expected.â¦
