SYNOPSIS: Seventeen thousand French troops leave Toulon harbour in May 1798 unaware of their ultimate destination. Yet for the men of the fleet, the first battle is merely to survive the degradation of life at sea. Barely three months after taking Rome, Napoleon Bonaparte has rewarded the finest regiments of that campaign with a place among the Army of Orient, the elite invasion force bound for Malta and Egypt. By the time the discontented ranks of Alain Lausard's cavalry unit have staggered, starved and exhausted, upon Egyptian shores, his dragoons have more than glory to fight for. Worn down by the blistering heat of the desert, they summon unknown strengths to resist the Arab warrior raids that blight their path towards the Nile, but as they are drawn deeper into forbidding territory, despair and disease, Nelson's destruction of the French fleet and Bonaparte's obsessive war-mongering convinces Lausard he will never see Paris again...
