A silver box. A sorceress. A secret buried for centuries.....

When the day arrives Leo unlocks it to discover ancient scrolls, a fragment of pottery marked with strange inscriptions - and a letter. Its contents reveal a mystery that Leo must travel all the way to Africa to solve, taking him on a adventure beyond his wildest imagiings.

Sailing across stormy seas to Zanzbar, Leo endures shipwreck, fever and canniba attacks, before coming face to face with Ayesha, she-who-must-be-obeyed: tyrannical ruler of a lost civilization. She has been waiting hundreds of years for the true descendant of her dead lover to arive. And arrive he does - with terrifying consequences.....
