Recai Osman: Muslim,
philosopher, billionaire and Superhero?
Controversial and
daring, Shadow on the Wall details the transformation of Recai Osman from
complicated man to Superhero. Forced to witness the cruelty of the Morality
Police in his home city of Elih, Turkey, Recai is called upon by the power of
the desert to be the vehicle of change. Does he have the strength to answer
Allah's call or will his dark past and self doubt stand in his way?
Pulling on his faith in
Allah, the friendship of a Jewish father-figure and a deeply held belief that
his people deserve better, Recai Osman must become The SandStorm.
In the tradition of
books by Margaret Atwood and Salman Rushdie, Shadow on the Wall tackles issues
of religion, gender, corruption and the basic human condition. Beautiful and
challenging, this is not a book to miss.
Excerpt:
A man. A voice. Darkness tangled her thoughts with fear and
childhood warnings.
Sabiha, you
shouldn’t be walking alone, she’d heard it
say.
Stupidity had made her rash; selfish concerns about her
brother caused her to make the worst possible mistake—the kind of mistake that
would make her wish she had died, if by any chance she managed to survive.
The low voice knew her name, knew her family name—it had
come specifically for her.
She ignored its call, quickening her pace. A laugh broke
out in the night, mocking her fear. Suddenly the owner of the voice grabbed
her, turning her around to face him.
Refusing to meet the voice’s gaze, Sabiha fixed her eyes
forward. Her gaze came to rest on his arm where she saw the outline of a
tattoo, dark and menacing. A snake’s tail circled his bicep and disappeared
behind his back, only to reveal itself on the other side of his neck with two
onyx eyes staring at her, unblinking.
