  Sheila Paine's journey in search of this elusive talismaic triangle had been frustrating. Her new travels begin in an Himalayan valley, take her though the turbulent island of the disintegrating ex-Soviet Union and end on the Greek island of Karpathos in the Dodecanese, where the embroidered Afghan amulet she is seeking is still worn by the women on the island to ward off evil spirits.
