Death Stalks the Brave

29. SAHARA ADVENTURE SERIES - DEATH STALKS THE BRAVE

The narrative commences in Dini Salam, a garrison town of the French Foreign Legion in the Sahara. Teuns Stegmann, a South African, and his German friend, Fritz Mundt, witness the landing of an unusual aircraft. Shortly thereafter, Teuns is summoned to Colonel Le Clerq’s office. He receives orders to fly to Algiers with Colonel La Crosse within two hours. The reason for this abrupt command remains unknown, even to Le Clerq and his second-in-command, Captain D’Arlan. For Teuns, this fosters an atmosphere of mystery and anticipation.

Teuns is taken to Algiers and introduced to General Du Bois, head of the Secret Service. He undergoes intensive training in Arabic dialects, culture, and combat skills. The objective is to prepare him for an exceedingly perilous solo mission: to uncover a mysterious Arab weapon. Teuns’s plans include, among other things, infiltrating an Arab conference where he discovers the nature of the terrifying weapon, a biological virus with potentially lethal consequences for the Foreign Legion.

His intensive training and exceptional prowess enable him to penetrate the city of Doetra in the Atlas Mountains. In Doetra, he must brave the immense sheer cliffs by descending them with a rope. Then, he must reach the scientist, Professor Amaroff, to obtain his notebook and secret formula, and eliminate the professor. The slightest misstep on his part will signify the end of his mission, demanding all of Teuns’s knowledge, skills, and determination not to yield before achieving his goal. Will Teuns manage to defy all dangers and succeed in his objective, or will he be captured before he can accomplish it?
