In Peshawar, a tentative alliance between the Pathan Muslims and the gathering Hindus once again spells potential danger for the Raj. In an attempt to bring peace to this troubled region, the High Commissioner brings in the 114th Queen's Own Royal Strathspeys - a decision that will stretch the British forces' patriotism to the limit. Captain James Ogilvie is then seconded into the Political Department and sent on a dangerous mission to infiltrate the hostile region of Peshawar. He must seek out the Pathan leader who calls himself the Star of Islam, but there are a multitude of obstacles that look certain to block his way.
