When the emir hears about this, Alya's gift proves to be not only a blessing, but also a curse. Very much against her father's will, the emir sends Alya as an interpreter with an embassy to Christian Navarre. This marks the beginning of a harsh and life-threatening journey through Europe, which takes Alya further and further away from the warm, civilized Al-Andalus towards the cold, barbaric north...

'Alya's Gift' is the English re-edition in one volume of the historical diptych from 2018, consisting of 'Alya' and 'Alya's Keuze', published by the Dutch publishing house Mozaïek.
