Four old friends, members of the New York Explorers Club, decide to search for a
legendary camel caravan that disappeared in 180 A.D. somewhere in the Empty
Quarter of the Arabian Peninsula.
Although past their prime, these adventurers are determined to make one last
great discovery in the spirit of the famous explorers of the 19 th Century. A retired
American war correspondent, a former Russian Cosmonaut, an aging British
mercenary, and a beautiful actress - the runaway wife wife of one of Osama bin
Laden’s brothers – set off together to solve the centuries old mystery.
The quest starts off as something of a lark yet evolves into a struggle for survival as
they encounter soaring temperatures, rogue sheikhs, sandstorms, bandits, warring
factions and other unforeseen dangers. Along the way, they rediscover the skills,
resilience and ingenuity that have kept them alive throughout their long and
exciting lives.
