Some legends should stay buried.
This one could ignite a continent in flames.
When two American antiquarians vanish near the fabled ruins of Zaruse in the Sahara desert, Captain D’Avalan is sent to find them. With a small company of his toughest French Foreign Legionnaires, he ventures deep into the most dangerous territory in Africa, a land ruled by the bloodthirsty Dalak tribe.
But this is no ordinary rescue. D’Avalan discovers the scientists are not victims, but fanatics armed with a terrifying discovery, named the Bloody Ruby of Talaki. The legendary stone has granted them god-like power over the Dalaks, and with it, they plan to unite the desert tribes in a holy war that will drown North Africa in blood.
Outnumbered a hundred to one and trapped in the heart of an ancient city, the Legionnaires face a suicidal choice. To have any hope of survival, they must capture the ruby and shatter the legend or die trying. This relentless military adventure thriller is a must-read for fans of Wilbur Smith and Alistair MacLean.
