The uprising in the Congo, following independence in 1960, spread rapidly, creating fear and consternation throughout the Republic. Marauding bands were murdering Africans and Europeans at will. Tribal differences were exploited, causing an exodus of large numbers of the population.
As armed mutineers entered the province two managers of Katangan Railways, organise the theft of two trains, loaded with copper ore, before abandoning the country. Over the following seventeen years, their illegal act led to murder and mayhem, from Africa to the Highlands of Scotland.
In nineteen-seventy-seven two ex-colonial police colleagues, Elias Kufanu and Lucas Darke, join forces to solve three eleven-year-old murders in the recently independent Kingdom of Kwazania. Their attempt to track the ruthless killer uncovers an imminent plot, by a failing Russian-backed guerrilla organization, to launch a mass attack on the border town of Fort Albert.
