For four hundred years, the Twelve Kings of Sharakhai have ruled the Great Shangazi desert. They are immortal, ruthless and powerful. No hope exists of freedom under their oppressive rule. Or so it seems, until Çedamihn Ahyanesh'ala, a brave woman who fights in the fighting pits as the White Wolf, defies the King's laws and goes outside on the holy night of Beht Za'hir and discovers a secret that may well be the end of the Kings.[2]
