The second thrilling installment in the George Hart series is set
during the Second Anglo-Afghan War, of 1878-80 Back in England
following his heroics in the Zulu Wars, George Hart is summoned to
a new adventure when Prime Minister Disraeli asks him to go on a
secret mission to Afghanistan, where the British fear Muslim
extremists are poised to overthrow the local ruler and threaten the
jewel in the Imperial crown, India.
Hart has severe misgivings. Always an outsider in British society,
he doesn't like Whitehall's arrogant way of meddling in other
people's religious and political affairs, but, desperate for money,
he takes the job and descends the Khyber Pass into a strange and
violent land. When his warnings are ignored by the pompous British
Resident in Kabul, a terrible massacre occurs, and soon Hart is on
the run with a beautiful Afghan princess, in a race to prevent an
uprising and head off a catastrophic British invasion.
