Montague Cutter in Timbuktu

It's July 1940.

Timbuktu, French Sudan, is under the theoretical control of Free France. With players from Vichy France, Nazi Germany, and fascist Italy tossed into the mix, this ancient city is a no-man's land where life is cheap.

Somewhere in the Sahara, so the legend goes, is the IX Legio Hispana Rome's Ninth Legion Hispaña better known to some as the Lost Legion. Sent on a mission by Emperor Trajan in 108AD to find wealth to refill his coffers, the legion vanished into history and the ever-shifting sands of the Sahara Desert.
Montague Cutter just wants to enjoy a simple life away from the strife and horrors of Europe's war, but that is cut short on a hot, dusty day when someone from his past appears in the doorway of Reggie's Oasis.

Alyxandria Constantinescu, daughter of the renowned Romanian archaeologist Andrei Constantinescu, has a simple favor to ask: help her rescue her father from the Nazis and locate an artifact that has been lost for more than eighteen hundred years.

The Nazis, as it so happens, have a personal grudge against Cutter and do not take lightly to his interference in their mission for der Fuhrer.
Escaping into the desert with the help of a pair of young local adventurers and a mysterious Tuareg, Cutter and crew begin their perilous quest for the bronze eagle of the Lost Legion and the wealth that the legion had been sent to find.

But nothing's ever easy and what Cutter and crew stumble across was something even they never expected!
