Master of the Last Observatory

Simone deceived Hamid. Hamid was the right-hand man of the father of the factory owner. And her father was none other than Shakib Khattar, one of the faces of the Observatory. This abduction came at a delicate time, as Shakib was deeply preoccupied with the inheritance of his fortune: would he hand it over to the heirs of the Lapaline family, who would likely take it with them? Or would he entrust it to Hamid, who had become "like" his son? It wasn't just the family; the world, as Shakib Khattar knew it, was changing. Lebanon had been engulfed in war, and as events unfolded, the head of the Observatory became isolated. This epic novel has lost its hero in the winds of history and the shifting balance of power and influence.
