This classic novel by Marie Corelli depicts a passionate affair that ignites a dark flame of love that has gone bad. The story centers on Ziska, a mystery Egyptian woman who is sort of a reincarnation of an old Egyptian woman who was murdered by her boyfriend when he became bored of her. A group of aristocratic English tourists is entranced and seduced by Ziska, whose remarkable likeness to an ancient Egyptian woman prompts a flurry of swirling rumors and ideas about who and what she may actually be. One specific visitor, a well-known painter, grows torridly attracted to the woman, which has ancient ramifications and throws a shadow over him and his fixation, bringing about a fated conclusion that has been brewing for thousands of years. Along the way, a visiting scholar with interests makes the claim that Ziska's life and the lives of the obsessive, love-sick tourists are both imprisoned in enormous mysteries involving reincarnation, past incarnations, eternal love, and the struggle between good and evil. To know the complete story, readers should read this book as it can be a thrilling story!
