Among the passengers is Alison Habib, a young Scottish woman traveling from England to Cairo with her Egyptian doctor husband and their eighteen-month-old daughter, Caroline. A convoy of South African Army trucks and twenty-eight men are sent across seven hundred miles of uncharted barren mountains and hot desert sands to rescue the survivors. Finally twenty-six days after the shipwreck, the exhausted passengers and stranded pilot arrive at the military outpost in Windhoek. But as sixty years pass, no one realizes that Alison is harboring a secret of what really happened on that beach.
