This is a romantic suspense novel involving an American Engineer in Saudi Arabia who falls in love with a beautiful Lebanese Moslem girl. Their love affair violates Moslem religion traditions, and is complicated by a very restricted life in Saudi Arabia that forbids any contact between men and women before marriage. The affair is carried on in many different places in Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf cities. It occurs against the background of the ongoing Sunni and Shiite Moslem religions struggles, public beheadings, and the previous events of the Lebanese Civil War, the Iraq-Iran War, and the Gulf War with Iraq. The love affair struggles with the rise of terrorism, and with a dramatic series of personal life-threatening episodes. It finally ends with an attempted escape from Saudi Arabia.
