"This book checks all my boxes: mystery, romance, drama, archaeology, horses, and the vast desert. Well-written, suspenseful, and descriptive, I felt I was inside the story peering from behind a diaphanous curtain, my heart pounding!" -Linda M., Education Administrator
Kira Fontaine comes to Arabia with only one thing in mind-to find a legendary lost river-never realizing her life is about to change forever.
When she crawls from the wreckage of her plane, she finds herself stranded in a vast, unforgiving desert. Relying on her Native American ancestral knowledge and skills, and her faith, she searches for a way home.
Along the way, she saves a mythical golden horse who, in turn, saves her. Her journey becomes more difficult when she discovers a hidden valley with an ancient mystery.
Cast adrift in a world of treachery and murder, lust and love, Kira follows a dangerous path that leads her to two men-one who wants her dead and one who doesn't know she exists.
Will she survive the dangers of the desert and find a way home? Or will she choose to remain and become one of the desert born?
