Reseña del editor
Sheila Paine's previous journey in search of this elusive talismanic triangle had been frustrating. No neat logic seemed to exist to explain why the amulet turned up where it did and was missing where she might have expected to find it. Her new travels begin in a Himalayan valley, take her through the turbulent lands of the disintegrating ex-Soviet Union and end on the Greek island of Karpathos in the Dodecanese, where the embroidered Afghan amulet she is seeking is still worn by women on the island to ward off evil spirits.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
