Istanbul, 1593- returning from their previous mission with the
death of their Commander weighing heavily upon them, there is no
respite for the Ruzgar unit, as they are declared traitors to the
Ottoman Empire and banished from the legendary Janissary order.
Even the recovery of the fabled Armour of David, so prized by the
Sultan is not enough to prevent this. Now, desperate and on the
run, Will must turn to the sinister Earl of Rothminster as an
unlikely protector. Meanwhile Awa and the remaining Ruzgar,
outcasts as far as the authorities are concerned, are nevertheless
called upon by their small band of supporters to protect the very
people who have declared them enemies of the empire, as a
mysterious force threatens to engulf the capital. All roads lead to
Istanbul and all who traverse it, will be plagued by a demon's
touch...
A small undercover unit of hand-picked, trusted warriors is
assembled to track down the thieves who have stolen the Staff held
by Moses as he parted the Red Sea. They are the `Ruzgar' - the
`Wind' - and like the wind, they travel silently and unseen. Awa,
the studious daughter of a noble family from the Songhai Empire in
West Africa, was kidnapped and enslaved by Moroccans after the
disastrous Battle of Tondibi. Awa is a whirling and deadly force
when she has a scimitar in her hand. Will, who was snatched from
his home in London at the age of 5, is now 16 and a galley slave on
board a Moroccan warship. Joining the Ruzgar turns him into a man.
He and Awa become fast friends. The other comrades are Turkish,
Greek and Albanian, all led by the charismatic Bosnian Mehmed
Konjic, a wise counsellor and natural hero. The Ruzgar's pursuit of
a network of rogues takes them across continents and into many
perilous situations. The action is fast and furious, with dire
situations requiring a Houdini to escape from . . . set against
thrilling backdrops including deserts, oceans, dungeons, the roofs
of the Grand Bazaar of Istanbul, the canals of Venice and the court
of Queen Elizabeth I at Nonsuch Palace in Surrey. The task to
reclaim the Staff is a mission that is (almost) impossible . . .
Istanbul, 1592: the arrival of a mysterious manuscript at the court
of Sultan Murad III, claiming to know the location of the fabled
Armour of King David, sends the Sultan into a frenzied desire to
track it down. Despite being the most powerful man in the world, he
has never led armies into battle and craves the protection of the
legendary breastplate before he takes the field. It is to the elite
Ruzgar unit that the Sultan turns to locate the Armour. This
journey will be dangerous. Each warrior is aware that it could
change their lives forever, and that for some of them, this mission
to find King David's Armour will be their last.
