Summary
“I was wondering,” Joe said, after a while. “I know the friendship house never worked out, but how about we make a go of it? A friendship flat?”
“I don’t know,” Nicky said, honestly. “It sounds nice. But what happens when you fall in love and want to live with your partner?”
Joe laughed. “It doesn’t last,” he said. “I can’t imagine anything more stable than friendship. This one, I mean.”
Nicky knew what he meant, and yet. And yet. “Ask me again in six months,” he said.

Summary
It's 1120, and Yusuf and Nicolò are living in Bukhara, having gone into business together copying books. Everything would be perfect, if only Nicolò could get himself to stop pining over Yusuf. But then Nathaniel ibn Isaac, a Jewish physician from Córdoba, comes to them seeking someone to help him complete a manual for an astrolabe plate he's invented. Nicolò enjoys the job, until someone starts making attempts on Nathaniel's life. Now his life, Yusuf and Nicolò's secret, and their corner of the scholarly community in Bukhara are at risk until they can find the would-be killer.
ETA 3/21/23: For folks who were interested in the research for this story, I added a bibliography of things I used that can be found online for free, including links. If sources on medieval Bukhara and astronomy and such seem like your jam, feel free to check chapter 11 out!
