She travels to Cairo, drawn by her husband Mark's work in the high echelons of the UN, aiding refugees in Gaza. An unexpected hitch in his mission leaves Juliette adrift in the bustling city, with only the company of Tareq Khalifa, Mark's retired associate who extends a warm welcome.

Juliette, the foreigner, and Tareq, the retired cop, find themselves caught in a whirlwind of emotions that surpasses their initial companionship. As they journey through the city's heart, an unexpected romance blossoms, leaving them both startled and intrigued. Will the echo of the city's enchanting call translate into a love affair, or will it remain a fleeting memory of their Cairo time?
