Terror Strikes
At the dawn of a new century. The world finds itself gripped by fear. Fear of an invisible force that had pledged eternal war against a peace-loving world. The words Terrorist, Islam and Osama Bin Laden burden our lexicon. And, for many, life will never return to normal.
The Call to Arms
For Private Patterson, the world’s thirst for revenge becomes overwhelming. But, to the men in the Pentagon, it’s all another expectant cakewalk.
Outright domination is paramount in their quest for forever wars. Yet in the tangle that is global Geopolitics, Patterson must fight for his own sense of morals.
History Repeats Itself
100 years earlier, George Sher Gul, a proud cameleer, flees a war-torn Afghanistan.
He embarks on an austere journey through a faraway land, Australia. The place known as ‘Down under’, where things aren’t so lucky for a brown-skinned man.
In the country’s dry, desert interior, George soon finds himself un-welcome. And if the new boss doesn’t kill him first, the dusty Outback will.
A Legacy Awaits
In his struggle to find a reprieve, George must prove his worth to the wild colonial men of Australia. But he cannot make this journey alone.
A Hidden Connection
Separated by one hundred years of history and culture, George and Patterson must each transcend time. One to ensure his name will endure; the other, in search of a lost family connection.
