The Khan of Shapoora
Bella Stanley's mission to Afghanistan is she knows a dangerous one, for she hopes to find her lost second cousin Resaldar, held captive for years by savage tribesmen. But when she finds him, Resalder is far from the pathetic figure of her imagination. Instead he is the magnificent, feared Khan of Shapoora, ruler of his captors and Bella falls immediately in love. Which is madness itself, for Resalder is no conventional Victorian English gentleman. He is half barbarian, a though, passionate man who takes what he wants and what are Bella's beliefs or reputation to him?
