In 1955 a glittering array of Hollywood talent assembles in Mexico to film an extravaganza on Cortez – they include Nick Stone, the young Greek director; Julian ‘Looks’ Brooks, the English matinee idol and his beautiful fiancee, Ines; sexy French starlet Dominique du Frey with her strange white-haired chaperone Agathe; and the imperious producer Herbert Croft.
But, under the blazing sun, old vendettas are stirring – to be paid off in a saga of revenge and murder which began in the darkness of wartorn France.
