Opis

Jessie Hardy, a young student, and his retired uncle, Professor Phil Wandersen, embark on an educational tour through the Sahara countries of North Africa. Uncle Phil plans to take his nephew to various cultural sites and museums. In Egypt, they meet the beautiful and intriguing Fatimah, who insists on joining them. She says that she is escaping an arranged marriage, but is she telling the truth? Jess suspects that she might be in love with him. She mentions that she is on a secret mission. Our two travelers find themselves embroiled in intrigues and pursuits that involve murders, kidnappings, abductions, and unexpected encounters with local tribes. Our heroes experience the beauty of the desert of northern Africa and get an insight in the life of the local tribes. The novel ends with a pertinent message of optimism and hope for the continent's future. The adventures, written in a simple flowing style, can be enjoyed by adults and young alike. The sites mentioned in the novel are based both on thorough research and the blogs of travelers who have explored the remote areas of northern Africa. All round, the book promises entertaining reading.
