Description:
|
When Jake Sorensen takes a summer internship at a magazine in Arabia, he has no idea what he will find. In pursuit of his first big story, he determines to uncover the truth behind the rumors of the mysterious White Bedouin, a nomad who roams the hostile deserts of Saudi Arabia's Empty Quarter - a land that few dare enter. Buried in dusty corporate cases, the files Jake uncovers contain information about an oil pioneer named Stephen Markham. Follow Jake as he searches for answers about the elusive White Bedouin, winding the clock back fifty years to trail Stephen Markham on a quest for oil that ultimately reveals layers of meaning long hidden in the sands of Arabia. Alone in the desert, Stephen finds a greater understanding of its people, as well as a life-changing - and forbidden - love, but among these unexpected discoveries is something much more sinister than anything he can ever imagine.
