This historical novel invites us to follow the fabulous journey of a 25-century-old gold ceremonial women’s headdress from the ancient world to the present day across three continents. This crown was created with inspiration drawn from the goddess Ishtar in Mesopotamian mythology. The reader learns of its travels from continent to continent, from palaces to museums, from Babylon to Manila via Pompeii, Germany, Philadelphia, and Abu Dhabi.
Did the crown of Ishtar possess evil powers which caused a succession of tragedies in the lives of the many women who wore it: a Babylonian princess, an Egyptian queen, an empress in ancient Rome and an English woman drug trafficker?
This fascinating story full of intrigue blends fiction with factual events drawn from archaeological research and ancient and contemporary texts. We are immersed in a world where, according to animist beliefs, a coveted object could be endowed with sensitivity or could even possess a soul.
