Sasha Hassanein is the timid daughter of a narcissistic Egyptian surgeon and a German mother who abandoned them when she was a toddler. She grows with her father and half-brother to become a medical student and animal lover. On a life-changing day, she encounters a Chinese-medicine expert who invites her to join the holistic-healing world. Within a week, she converts to veganism.
Once she feels confident and accomplished, a self-made shaman, Dahlia, appears and captures the spotlight, shaking her sense of stability. Around the same time, a trip to Sinai develops intensely, ushering in a renewed sense of purpose: Killing men and castrating their corpses to avenge abused women and animals.
Now everything has changed. It’s finally Sasha’s chance to become the top spiritual leader she believes she is—if only she could get her worst enemy out of the way…
In this daring debut novel, the author examines a different perspective about spirituality and veganism. She takes readers on an enchanting journey throughout the sacred sites and breathtaking nature of Egypt, its people and cuisine. This is all encapsulated in a page-turning psych thriller that will leave you at the edge of your seat until it’s over.
