After a diplomatic event with the General Hodge is attacked by local muggers and discovers they were explicitly hired to kill him by an obinyo (white man) identified as a bearded man friendly with the politician. Having piqued Hodge's attention with an attempted murder scrutiny of the bearded man uncovers clandestine communications with two other men who appear entirely antithetical in status origins and religions to the bearded man. Tracing all three men to a meeting in Marrakech Hodge falls into a world of unknown religious ritual murder violence and intrigue.
