    Summary

    Nile’s dreams don’t offer clues, just impressions: a lonesome rain soaked road, a barn at night full of warm straw and soft animal noises, the view through a bus window. She reports to Andy every morning like summarizing yesterday’s news, but she always runs out of words before the thirstiness in Andy’s eyes is satisfied.

    Summary

    Yusuf al-Kaysani, M.D., Ph.D., F.A.C.S., attending physician and head cardiothoracic surgeon of New York City’s Vanguard Medical Center, also known as Doctor Joe, was a man of precision, dedication, and careful intent. Which makes the entire incident of his discovering Doctor DiGenova’s heart condition by accident all the more baffling.

    Summary

    Very good,” says the Prince. “Now. Listen carefully. Congratulations, Signor al-Kaysani and Signor diGenova; you are to be married. To each other.”

    (or: Yusuf and Nicolò are ordered to marry each other to end a family feud, while both pining for their secret lovers (each other). This goes about as well as you’d expect.)

    Summary

    "Do you think we'll dream of each other, now?" Nicolò asks unexpectedly. "Like we do those two women?"

    It startles a real laugh out of Yusuf. "Who knows? Sometimes, Nicolò, I think I must have dreamed you entirely."

    After escaping the fall of Jerusalem together, Yusuf walks away from Nicolò in order to return home and move on with his life. It works for a while. Fifteen years later, Nicolò shows up in his dreams of the two immortal women.

    (In which Yusuf needs time to come to terms with destiny, and Nicolò to make peace with himself, before they can meet on equal ground.)
