Shukran: A Tale of the Seven Wisdoms

By: Erken Zhantykpayev

In a nameless city between two rivers of sand, a young woman named Shukran loses her brother in the fires of war and inherits, in his place, an ancient family sword and a single word for a name: gratitude. When she meets Jack Morrison, a foreign captain lost in her city's true geography, hatred slowly becomes love - until his employer, a private security company, reports him dead in a desert "accident." A hidden letter changes everything: "Don't trust them." Armed with her grandmother's crown of seven wisdoms, a dervish's blessed shield, and a blade three generations old, Shukran crosses caravan routes and salt flats to uncover the truth - surviving ambushes, storming a smuggler's fortress, and facing the man behind it all in a duel that costs her everything except the one grace strong enough to win it: sacrifice. A tale in the spirit of "The Arabian Nights" - of grief, gratitude, and a woman who refused to stop searching.
