"The Flask of the Crystal Hookah III: The Mystery of the Koh-i-Noor Diamond" A legendary gem. A forgotten queen. A secret worth killing for.
In this gripping historical adventure, the story unfolds across millennia-from the golden steppes of ancient Sakastan to present-day Tashkent. Queen Tomyris, the fierce ruler of the Saka-Massagetae tribes, once safeguarded the Koh-i-Noor-the "Mountain of Light." Centuries later, her descendant, Tamilla Mahkamova, a modern UN Goodwill Ambassador from Uzbekistan, finds herself at the centre of a deadly mystery.
As her husband is kidnapped and a mysterious call demands the legendary diamond, Tamilla is forced to confront the truth behind her royal bloodline, a centuries-old curse, and a treasure that may no longer be just a legend. From the glittering courts of the Great Mughals to British royal vaults, the journey of the Koh-i-Noor spans India, Persia, and Central Asia-and may just end in Uzbekistan.
Weaving myth, history, and modern intrigue, this third volume in the series shines with suspense, romance, and the enduring power of heritage.
Review:
The author vividly and realistically portrays each episode, with every character's story strong enough to form the basis of an entire novel. These stories interweave, like beads strung onto the thread of history, connecting different eras. Through the lives, struggles, and joys of individual people, the reader witnesses the unfolding of history - not as something distant and abstract but as a vivid, mosaic-like picture where each piece holds significance.
