Atbara, Sudan, 1913. A dead man is fished out of the River Nile. An
accident - or something more sinister? A visiting Pasha from the
Royal Household believes it was murder - and that he himself was
the intended target. He insists that the Mamur Zapt, Head of the
Khedive's Secret Police, escorts him on his return train journey to
Cairo, for protection. It's to be an eventful voyage. Matters take
an unexpected turn when the train is stranded in the desert
following a sandstorm. With the help of English schoolboy Jamie
Nicholson, the Mamur Zapt pursues his investigations, convinced
that at least one of his fellow passengers has a secret to hide.
And what was the Pasha really doing in that remote corner of the
Sudan? Could the Mamur Zapt's deepest fears be true? Could he
really be about to uncover a conspiracy against the British?
