The Syrian Jewelry Box

Young American Carina Rourke grew up in blissful innocence in the Middle East until at age fifteen she succumbed to her obsessive desire to search inside her mother's fobidden jewelry box. In so doing, she discovered a shocking family secret. On the heels of her discovery, she and her family pursued her father's dream of an exotic drive through the Middle East and Europe. This journey serves as a metaphor for the woman Carina became--a silent nomad searching for identity.
