"I die not. I shall come again, and shall once more be beautiful, I swear it--it is true!" These strange last words, uttered by Ayesha in She: A History of Adventure proved prophetic. For twenty years after the events of that novel, Leo Vincey receives a vision that Ayesha has indeed reincarnated in a remote corner of the world. Guided by this vision, Leo and his companion Horace Holly set out on an adventure through the mountainous passes of Tibet to the lost kingdom of Kaloon, where they encounter another soul from their forgotten past. Along the way they must brave avalanches, attempted murder, "death-hounds," and more. First published in 1905, Ayesha: The Return of She concludes this incredible and thrilling drama of mystery, reincarnation and immortal love.
