Hava and Ahmad are trying to navigate their relationship — while also changing the lives of the people fate brings them to. Thus, the heiress of a multimillion-dollar fortune, Sofia Winston, after brief encounters with Ahmad suffering from a mysterious illness, sets off in search of a cure in the Middle East — and meets a young jinniya there, who is not afraid of iron and has therefore been exiled from her tribe...
