Afghanistan, between the World Wars—an unlikely battlefield for international intrigue. But as Europe secretly prepares for another global conflict, a preliminary battle is fought in the Middle East.
“Buzz” Kramer, a veteran of the Great War and circus stunt performer, seeks employment in Afghanistan when his career is temporarily interrupted. There he meets Harry Whitecliff, his new boss, who is a champion of the local peoples—and an operative for British Intelligence. Seeking to protect the area’s tribesmen and their families from the harassment and harm being inflicted upon them by local insurgents, he enlists Buzz’s flight expertise in his mission.
Outside official channels and with little to work with, Buzz understands the magnitude of the task before them and calls upon his fellow circus performers to aid the cause. These men, with the help of a group of teenage girls recently freed from the rebels, will do everything within their power, make any sacrifice, and face any hardship to make their country safe again. Using every tool and skill at their disposal, together they devise a plan to redeem the area that the insurgents won’t soon forget—and neither will you.
Populated by colorful, memorable characters and punctuated by a fairy-tale love story, “The Bee Flies Over Afghanistan” is an adventure you don’t want to miss.
