Hannibalnak hatvan háborús elefántot kell szállítania az észak-afrikai Karthágóból, a Közép-tengeren át Ibériáig. Ki kell képeznie embereit e nehéz feladat végrehajtására. Ennek a projektnek az az első része, hogy egy elefántot be kell rakni egy hajóra, és tizennyolc napos úton kelet felé kell vitorlázni. Kiválasztotta legnagyobb elefántját, Obolust, amelyet emberei képzésében használ majd. Az állat Obolus hajóra felszállítás közben megölte hosszú távú gazdáját. Egy lány, Liada az egyetlen, aki képes irányítani a temperamentumos elefántot. Miután sikerül neki felvezetnie a rámpán és a hajó fedélzetén Obolust, Hannibal megkéri, hogy menjen el az elefánttal Ibériába. Liada nem szívesen hagyja el Karthágóban a barátait, de a hosszú út során aggódik Obolus biztonsága miatt is. Úgy dönt, hogy elhagyja barátait, és gondoskodik Obolusról.

Hannibal must transport sixty war elephants from Carthage in North Africa, across the Middle Sea to Iberia. He has to train his people to accomplish this difficult task. The first part of this project is to load one elephant on a ship and sail to the east on the eighteen-day voyage. He has chosen his largest elephant, Obolus, to use in the training of his men. During the loading the animal onto a ship, Obolus killed his longtime handler. The girl, Liada, is the only other person who can control the temperamental elephant. After she succeeds in guiding Obolus up the ramp and onto the deck of the ship, Hannibal asks her to go with the elephant to Iberia. Liada is reluctant to leave her friends at Carthage, but she’s also concerned about Obolus’ safety on the long voyage. She decides to leave her friends and take care of Obolus.

L'incontro di Cian e Saxon nel cuore dell'Amazzonia è più di un incontro di due persone; è l'unione di due mondi diversi. Le loro esplorazioni e avventure li portano nelle profondità della foresta pluviale, quindi a metà del globo alla ricerca di un luogo tranquillo dove stabilirsi. Ma invece di trovare la pace, il loro comune senso di giustizia li porta in viaggio dall'Europa a New York, quindi di nuovo in Brasile, dove devono affrontare l'organizzazione criminale dell'ambiziosa e spietata Oxana, che non si fermerà davanti a nulla per continuare il suo commercio di animali in pericolo di estinzione, donne e bambine.
