A voracious reader, Saskia injects fantasy into real life with a transforming energy. She feasts at the side of Odysseus, learns trading from Marco Polo as they travel across desert wastes, makes a sextant as a birthday present for Captain Hornblower. But Saskia needs a comrade-in-arms, and she finds one in a newcomer to her school, the beautiful Jane Singh. Their friendship is flourishing when out of the blue Saskia gets an invitation to join her father on a holiday expedition whose destination and ultimate purpose are as mysterious as the man himself.
