The year is 1930 & the British are in Arabia. Ivor Willoughby, a young Orientalist, embarks on an ambitious quest to find his father, an officer abroad with the British Army. In all of Ivor's life, Robert has returned to England only once, bedraggled & wild-eyed with tales of As'ir, a land of Sheikhs & white-turbaned bandits.
