What is The jealous : A Sufi Mystery about?
Baghdad 295 hijri/907 CEA woman's howl of pain echoed through the courtyard. "She's killed him!" Her husband's face was twisted with terror, staring at something that was not there, looking at the space just over his chest, grasping at his left arm as if to wrest some unseen force away. Saliha gasped, "A jinn! God protect us from evil things!"When a distinguished scholar dies at the Barmakid hospital in Baghdad, nearly everyone points the finger at his slave Mu'mina, as the one who called a demon to kill him. Tein, a former frontier fighter turned investigator with the Grave Crimes Section, has no time for religion, let alone jinn, and sets out to prove her innocent. But Ammar, Tein's superior and old wartime friend, has already pushed her case before the Police Chief's court where she's sure to be executed or condemned to rot in the prisons built into the damp walls of Baghdad's Round City.
