Description

A small, elite group of men traded their humanity for absolute power, wealth, and women, mimicking one of the greatest kings to ever live—King Solomon. The trade-off? They can never fall in love, and the agonizing physical pain they feel from that single emotion is a constant, brutal reminder of what they’ve become.

There is a secret order of men who traverse the modern world undetected. Although they aren’t entirely human, their resemblance is undeniable. Through an ancient, forbidden, and excruciating ritual, they have become one with the Djinn—an invisible class of tricksters whom most mistake for ghosts.

As half-djinns, these men gained everything: unlimited wealth, ultimate power, and total independence—in exchange for their souls. Only the men in their cult know who they truly are.
​​​​​​​
Ali’s obsession with a famous songstress threatens to reveal their secret and cause friction with humans never imagined. Upon seeing Teresa, his buried human heart comes alive again, and the pain is tearing him apart. His careless obsession threatens to expose their existence and the reality of this long-hidden race of entities that were never meant to interact with humans.

The leaders of this elite group will stop at nothing to protect their secret empire, and Ali is about to learn the true price of The Vital Sacrifice.

For fans of Anne Rice and Neil Gaiman, you’ll love this gripping thriller where ancient myth meets modern obsession. This fast-paced novel delves deep into secret societies, shapeshifting Djinn, and a love story that could literally threaten man’s existence as we know it.

The Story

A secret society that practices the mysticism of King Solomon has gone under the radar for many centuries. Now, one member's obsession with a famous celebrity threatens to expose them.

 

Key Characters

Image of main character in The Vital Sacrifice - Teresa - made with AI

Teresa
Teresa (Zodiac - Libra) is the star of the novel, in terms of her being the main character and literally an opera star. Despite her fame in the world of opera, she has always considered herself a very ordinary woman and her private life is far more simple than anyone would believe a celebrity's life would be. This changes when Ali Abdur Rahman comes into her life.

Image of character in The Vital Sacrifice - Ali - made with AI

Ali
Ali Abdur Rahman (Zodiac - Pisces) is an Egyptian business tycoon that lives a very lavish lifestyle. He is a ladies' man in every sense of the word and commitment isn't his thing. He's a love 'em and leave 'em type not because he is a low down, dirty scoundrel. He is harboring a dark secret from his past that can't be known to anyone; but, his obsession with Teresa McMillan threatens to let the secret out.

Image of character in The Vital Sacrifice - Anwar - made with AI

Anwar
Anwar Mamluk (Zodiac - Scorpio) is a former Turkish mercenary turned business tycoon. Like Ali Rahman he's a ladies' man that enjoys all the pleasures of life and won't compromise that for anyone, especially not for a woman. He and his other co-leader, Chi Khan, find that they have to keep their brother Ali in line with their cult rules more than they should have to. They are on a mission to save him from the base desire of love that is an emotion that none of them should engage in anyway.

Image of character in The Vital Sacrifice - Chi Khan - made with AI

Chi Khan
Chi Khan (Zodiac - Sagittarius) is a Mongol spy and fighter turned business tycoon. Like his fellow cult co-leaders, Ali Rahman and Anwar Mamluk, he is also a ladies' man. He's the more fashion conscious of all three of them. He loves the Asian fashion scene and definitely loves western culture. Most of his wealth comes from the fashion industry and electronic commodities. He has a youthful, playful nature but when it comes to his loyalty to the cult, this is no laughing matter.
