They were forced to meet by the rivers of Babylon...In Israel two Concorde jets take off for a UN conference that will finally bring peace to the Middle East. Covered by F-14 fighters accompanied by security men the planes carry warriors pacifists lovers enemies dignatories - and a bomb planted by a terrorist mastermind. Suddenly they're forced to crash-land at an ancient desert site. Here with only a handful of weapons the men and women of the peace mission must make a desperate stand against an army of crack Palestinian commandos - while the Israeli authorities desperately attempt a rescue bid. A story of compulsive excitement rich in personal drama and political tension that must rank as one of the greatest of our times.
