At times, a fleeting coincidence becomes the spark that transforms the course of an entire life. After a long slumber, and years under the continued rule of the Ukhaydirid state—unaware of the gradual decline of its treasury, which relied heavily on the revenues of caravan taxes between Al-Ahsa and the Hijaz, passing through the lands of Al-Yamamah—a chance encounter between Mikhail and Ibn Tamim sets events into motion. One after another, developments unfold until the hidden truths are revealed to Ismail Al-Ukhaydiri—conspiracies and consequences that extend far beyond the treasury, reaching into the very core of the state’s domestic and foreign policies.

With little choice, Prince Yusuf Al-Ukhaydiri is compelled to yield to a set of strategies and policies aimed at securing the sustainability of the state—anchored in reforming the flawed distribution of wealth, redirecting it toward the working layers of society rather than concentrating it at the top of the hierarchical structure.

"As Ibn Tamim—the architect of this narrative—declares: “When resentment fades, critique becomes clear.” Within this novel lies a clarity of insight and reasoning, free from ulterior motives, devoted to a singular purpose: to reshape your understanding of macroeconomics at the level of the state. It equips you with the ability to distinguish between a consultative system within a sustainable economy and its counterpart in a rent-based economy dependent on a single source of income. In doing so, it grants you a deeper grasp of the foundations of economic visions—their goals, mechanisms, and dynamics—enabling you to interpret the economic and political changes we witness every day in our reality."
