Cleopatra lies asleep: Harmachis looks down at the most gorgeous woman he has ever seen. One white, rounded arm makes a pillow for her head. The web of her dark hair flows all around her. The rich lips are parted in a smile. Her limbs are draped in a robe so thin that the gleam of her flesh shines through it.  The sight of Cleopatra's beauty strikes the young Egyptian with all the power of a mortal blow. And for a moment Harmachis aches with grief because he has to kill someone so lovely!

Allan Quatermain, hero of King Solomon's mines, tells a moving tale of his first wife, the Dutch born Marie Marais, and the adventures that were linked to her beautiful, tragic history. This moving story depicts the tumultuous political era of the 1830's involving the trek-Boers, French colonists and the Zulu tribe in the Cape colony of South Africa. Hate and suspicion run high between the home government and the Dutch subjects. Allan accompanies the ill-fated Pieter Retief and the Boer Commision on an embassy to the Zulu despot, Dingaan. Villains attempt to kill Allan and rob him of his wife. The unfortunate mission ends in a blood-curdling massacre. Written at a time when slavery was widespread, Marie portrays characters and views reflective of its era. This is the first book in the Zulu trilogy (Marie, Child of Storm, and Finished).
