1935.
The eve of the Second World War.
The Italian army invades Ethiopia.
What can the half -worshiping Africans contrast with superbly equipped Europeans? They have neither modern weapons, nor the experience of conducting military operations … Understanding this, Emperor of Ethiopia offers two dashing mercenaries – American Jake Barton and the Englishman Garet Swiels – to deliver four armored cars to his country.
He pays gold – literally. Such offers are expensive.
But desperate adventurers do not even imagine what they and their fellow traveler, a charming journalist, face a risky campaign through Africa …
