This is the tale of Lukka, the Hittite soldier who traveled across Greece in search of the vicious slave traders who kidnapped his wife and sons. He tracks them all the way to war-torn Troy. There he proves himself a warrior to rank with noble Hector and swift Achilles. Lukka is the man who built the Trojan horse for crafty Odysseus, who toppled the walls of Jericho for the Israelites, who stole beautiful Helen--the legendary face that launched a thousand ships--from her husband Menelaus after the fall of Troy and fought his way across half the known world to bring her safely to Egypt.
