Fifty years ago, Jade served the Black Sultan as part of the Imperial Harem, but Jade was no ordinary harem girl—she was the sultan’s favorite. Rumored to be a djinn from the Ottoman Empire, she had the power to manipulate men’s hearts, subtly alter their convictions, and even affect the course of an entire war. The legends also say that Jade, and Jade alone, knew where the Black Sultan hid his treasure . . . a treasure that no one has ever managed to unearth. Now, fifty years later, Kim Nelson is reliving the life of her ancestor Jade in modern Istanbul, hoping to find answers that have been lost to history. It will be a long journey, a journey that will change her life forever. Contains Djinn 1 and Djinn 2

Deep in the heart of Africa, history is doomed to repeat itself as two women find themselves entangled in a powerful legend that could be key to one of the most coveted treasures on earth. With Jade having successfully stolen the lost treasure of the last Sultan, she, Lord Nelson, and Lady Nelson continue their passionate affair on a journey into Africa. But when a group of tribesmen savagely attacks them on their boat along the way, the complexities of this powerful yet cryptic culture begin to reveal themselves. Perhaps there is more behind the brutal attack than random savagery, perhaps there is a connection to the black pearl earring Jade now wears, which perfectly matches that of the tribe’s goddess. Jade’s granddaughter Kim Nelson embarks on a treacherous journey to reclaim the sought-after earring, the key to the treasure her grandmother stole decades ago. Diving into the mysteries of a secluded African culture, Kim must prove her worth through rituals of fire and flesh, much like her ancestor did, as she grows closer to discovering the coveted gem. But Kim isn’t the only one looking for this precious earring, and now the race is on to uncover the truth before it’s gone forever.
