Or his young son Khusrau, who is still a child? The noblemen choose neither. They place their hopes on a prince who has never been seen. The elusive third prince, fathered by Akbar long ago on a battlefield. The only way to find the Prince is by tracking down a precious jewel Akbar had given the mother...
