About
The narrators of this unforgettable novel tell the story of the rise to power of the ruthless, enigmatic, and puritanical governor of Cairo, Zayni Barakat ibn Musa, whose control of the corrupt city is effected only through a complicated network of spies and informers. Now, in 1516, the Mamluk reign is coming to an end with the advance of the invading Ottomans.
