Alex had gone to Egypt to accompany her old friend Miss Maitland who had a family problem to sort out, but she at once fell headlong in love with that fascinating country. And, fromtheir first tempestuous encounter, she had also fallen in love with the imperious Sheik Kasseem Omair - but what was the use of that? Certainly he appeared to return her interest, but all the same, he was a high-born Arab, an immensely wealthy prince of the desert, while she was just an ordinary girl. Surely she shouldn't be taking him seriously? - Dust jacket, MacKenzie Country (London, 1983)
