A mysterious warrior teams up with the daughter and son of a deposed Chinese Emperor to defeat their cruel brother, who seeks their deaths.
When the heir of the Imperial throne becomes the target of an assassination by his despised older brother, the young prince must flee the kingdom and seek protection. His only hope for survival is a reluctant war-weary crusader named Jacob, who must overcome his own personal demons and rally the assistance of a mythical outlaw known as The White Ghost. Together they must fight side by side in an epic battle to return the prince to his rightful place on the throne.—Fab Undici
On crusade in the Baghdad caliphate, knights Jacob and Gallain tire of the endless bloodshed and disappear east, where 'nobody' goes, all the way to China. Their the dying king plans to hand power, symbolized by the royal seal, not to his ever-victorious firstborn prince Shing but to wiser junior prince Zhao, to start an era of peace. Shing murders his father and pans the same for his brother, who fled with his elder sister Lian. Chased by Shing's black guard, the head for hopefully loyal generals in the mountains. On the way, they find chivalrous protection with Jacob, now an opium-addict, but still a military genius, who leads them to the stronghold of Gallain, now a settled brigand baron known as White Ghost, where they make a stand against the far more numerous black guard while Shing arrives.—KGF Vissers
