The Crown of Ishtar

Across continents and for twenty-five centuries, a magnificent golden crown weaves its way through history, leaving a trail of mystery, intrigue, and tragedy in its wake.

Inspired by the legendary adornments of Ishtar, the Mesopotamian goddess, the crown passes through countless hands and travels across the world. Crafted by a Babylonian jeweler, it embarks on an extraordinary journey and eventually resurfaces in Manila after a series of adventures in Alexandria, Pompeii, Germany, Philadelphia, and Abu Dhabi.

Throughout the ages, the many women who wore this precious ceremonial headdress came from vastly different worlds: a Babylonian princess, an Egyptian queen, an empress and a slave in ancient Rome, and an English drug trafficker. Yet they all share one chilling fate: their lives end in tragedy.

Could the crown possess a consciousness of its own, perhaps even a soul, as animistic traditions might suggest? Does it hold the key to secrets buried deep within its past?

And what if the crown itself is cursed? The trail of tragedy surrounding this coveted treasure raises an unsettling question: is its beauty hiding a darker power?

Blending fiction with historical accounts drawn from ancient and contemporary sources, this gripping historical thriller takes readers on an extraordinary journey through time, where myth and history intertwine and the past refuses to remain silent.
