'A haunting mystery wrapped in the final days of the Gulf pearl trade.'Al Jubail, Saudi Arabia. When archivist Amina inherits seven notebooks wrapped in indigo cloth, she expects a cataloguing task. What she finds instead is a mystery sealed since 1935.In the last great season of the Gulf pearl trade, a fleet of divers set out from the coast. A storm. An unmapped island. And a choice made by one man - Hamad al-Safi - that he never came home to explain.Ninety years later, Amina begins to read. Through the parallel journals of a meticulous diver and his watchful wife, she pieces together a story of fraud, sacrifice, and a love so quiet it could only be heard in the archive. At its centre: a single extraordinary pearl, divided in two - and a son who grew up not knowing what his father had given for him.AL JUBAIL: THE LAST PEARL DIVER is a novel about what we keep, what we hide, and what arrives - eventually - when the right person comes looking. 6
