Ailo Khalid, the beautiful 19-year-old daughter of a high Egyptian official, has come to America to study medicine and to escape the turmoil in Cairo. Her father has promised that he will not assign security agents to watch over her while she is staying with the Sandfords in Maine and on campus at Harvard.
So who are the Arab visitors who have suddenly shown up? Has her father broken his promise or are they her father's enemies here to harm her?
Has Husayn Mansur, an acquaintance from the University of Alexandria, come from Cairo for a social visit or is he from an extremist faction of the Islamist Brotherhood, as her mother and the Egyptian authorities suspect?
Ailo scoffs at their warnings. Her fear is that Paul Sandford, the 26-year-old son of her host, will think the suave, handsome Husayn is her lover.
