The Moroccan series brings together three historical novels set in North Africa. Crossed Bones / The Tenth Gift (2006) was the first, telling a story that spans centuries. The Salt Road (2010) and The Sultan’s Wife (2012) continued the exploration of Moroccan history from different angles and time periods.
Johnson’s time living in Morocco gives these books an authenticity of place and culture that reviewers have consistently noted. The novels blend history with personal stories of love, survival, and cultural encounter.
