FLASK OF CRYSTAL HOOKAH-IV or THE SECRET OF THE KHORASAN TREASURE

“The Flask of the Crystal Hookah IV: The Secret of the Khorasan Treasure”

When a priceless Abbasid bowl vanishes from a museum in Baghdad, two petty thieves unwittingly set off a chain reaction that stretches from Iraq to Uzbekistan. Meanwhile, an old man in Samarkand clutches a silk belt embroidered with forgotten symbols, which could be the missing half of an ancient treasure map. What links this humble elder to an empire lost in time?

As his path crosses with Saltanat Azamatova, great-granddaughter of Feruz-begim, secrets buried since the days of the Caliphate are brought to light. From the bustling streets of modern Tashkent to the ruins of ancient Khorasan, this thrilling tale blends crime, heritage, and the quest for meaning in a world that has forgotten its past.

A heart-racing mosaic of timelines and voices, this volume is both a mystery and a meditation on memory-and the treasures we carry within.

Review:

For readers drawn to historical fiction infused with mysticism and poetic depth, this book is a rewarding, albeit demanding, read. It is especially valuable for those interested in the cultural history of Central Asia, feminist perspectives in literature, and the philosophy of fate and memory.
