Katrina Lashes Arabia Katrina Owens is a 40ish American nurse working in a Riyadh hospital in Saudi Arabia where she is charge-nurse in the ER. After six years in the desert kingdom, the outrageous Katrina now has her belly full of the severely dysfunctional Saudi society. Especially fed up with the oppression of women, she is itching to finish her contract so she can move on to a hospital job in more liberal Dubai. But on the same day that Hurricane Katrina hits her hometown of New Orleans, Katrina is harassed by a religious fanatic in a Riyadh bazaar. Hefty enough to defend herself, Katrina goes ballistic. She's guilty of the unforgivable crime-humiliating a Saudi male in public. To avoid arrest and imprisonment, Katrina takes refuge on the palace grounds of a powerful Saudi prince. As she settles in under his generous patronage, she realizes that he will secure for her an Exit visa only if she agrees to satisfy his Submissive needs. At the same time, she finds herself in the middle of palace intrigue involving biological weapons under development in the palace clinic. She has landed in the center of an international plot. The wily Katrina must elude her male oppressors as she outwits the tyrannical government that aims to imprison her . . . or worse.
