About the book
Abducted by a titled adventurer, she was sold to the Dey of Algiers for his carnal amusement. Ravished by her own husband, the sanctity of her marriage became still another kind of sin. Loved by a man she could not have, she crossed burning sands and years of shame to reach his heart.
