Description

"Adam Ibram, the Egyptian-born advisor to the US President, was brutally shot in a kebab house near the bazaar in old Cairo. This high profile murder brought both the local police and the FBI on the scene. So feisty, country-born Lieutenant Rashid is pulled off his current undercover job and reluctantly paired with arrogant, attractive Daisy Brooke, with her degree in Middle Eastern studies." "The only thing the witness heard the dying man say was 'Firebird'..." "The one clue that Sammy show more Rashid found at the site was an Islamic amulet belonging to the Sanusiya Brotherhood a fundamentalist sect disbanded around 1917..." "And in the bazaar the macabre, brutal killings continue. The locals blame it on a ghoul..."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved show less
