The Kingdom of Khazar: The Saga Continues What dark secret does the antique box hold? And what is the secret of the black powder? After seven long years, an uneasy cease fire has been declared in the once-flourishing kingdom of Khazar, which has been torn in two by a brutal civil war. Yet there is still no peace in the land, as a nefarious conspiracy threatens Khazar's fragile equilibrium in the worst possible way. Plot and counterplot invest this tale with layers of fascinating complexity, intrigue, and edge-of-your-seat suspense. If you loved M. Kenan's previous novels, The Betrayal and The Outcast, you will revel in this newest chronicle of Khazar life. And if you haven't read those two bestsellers, get ready to meet a cast of fascinating characters in a gripping and compelling novel that you simply can't put down. - from Amzon
