The Water Crown

Jade St. John splits her time between her isolated estate in South Africa, protected by an enchantment her grandmother concocted more than a decade ago, and a basement apartment in Tel Aviv, with a door full of more levers and pulleys than a bank vault. Worldly and confident, she stands out in any crowd.
Zyan, a Bedouin boy, learning the way of the desert from his father’s stories, has accepted a humble path in order to learn the secrets of the nomadic way of life and to establish his roots in the shifting sand.
It’s at the well one day, that Zyan catches a wavy vision of Jade—whom he mistakes for a jinn—which tugs the magical thread connecting them while simultaneously drawing them into a global crisis. As they are pulled closer, their lives become more imperiled, until it becomes apparent that only together can they stay alive.
