Synopsis

""A King's Ransom"" is a novel written by Nina Frances Layard and published in 1904. The story follows the adventures of a young Englishwoman named Muriel St. Clare, who travels to Morocco with her father. While there, she is kidnapped by a group of Berber tribesmen and taken to their leader, the powerful and enigmatic Sultan Abdul Hamid. Muriel is initially terrified of the Sultan, but soon discovers that he is not the cruel and barbaric tyrant she had imagined. Instead, he is a cultured and educated man who is deeply committed to his people and his country. As Muriel spends more time with the Sultan, she begins to develop feelings for him, and he for her. However, their love is threatened by the political tensions between Morocco and the European powers, and by the machinations of the Sultan's enemies within his own court. Will Muriel and the Sultan be able to overcome these obstacles and find happiness together, or will they be torn apart by the forces that seek to keep them apart? ""A King's Ransom"" is a thrilling tale of love, adventure, and political intrigue set against the backdrop of a fascinating and exotic culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
