"A jackal in human form" . . . "a monster" . . . "a bloodthirsty creature who strikes down innocent men." In the years Anubis has spent wandering the desert alone, rumors of her violent deeds have spread through Persia. Her reputation finally catches up with her in Herat, where an angry mob chases her through the streets. She narrowly escapes death by jumping the walls of the city's artist colony-and there finds an unlikely ally in its most famous resident, miniature painter Kamal al-Din Bihzad. Time line. Bibliography.
