Shahrazad tells the Sultan a story every night, but does not quite finish by daybreak, and for almost a thousand days the Sultan has allowed her to live one more night to hear another story. But Shahrazad’s time and imagination is running out. When a young girl named Marjan visits the harem, she has something Shahrazad needs–more stories. As the Sultan’s mother plots against her, can Shahrazad, with Marjan’s help, heal the Sultan’s crippled heart and bring him peace? A gripping novel of hurt and the power of forgiveness.
