Description
Set against the tumultuous backdrop of Baghdad in 1917, Captain Jim Stringer is tasked with investigating what appears to be a case of treason. Upon his arrival, he finds himself in the midst of a city on the brink of insurrection, with his own cover seemingly blown.
Stringer's investigation leads him to a scene where his only contact lies dead, with flies buzzing around his body. As Stringer delves deeper into the mystery, he must navigate the treacherous landscape of war-torn Baghdad and confront the harsh realities of loyalty, duty, and survival.
