The drama of a real Muslim woman's struggle for freedom set against 16th century religious and cultural clashes that still prevail in Islamic culture today. In this biographical novel, Hura (her name translates to Free Woman) marries the Lord of Tetouan, dares escape his harem and becomes a 'pirate queen' to save her people from the invading Portuguese. Widowed, she matches wits with a Pasha, a King and a Sultan, is betrayed, captured and imprisoned. After escaping, she marries the Sultan of Fes but when he dies mysteriously she is finally sent into exile.
