In 1819 the Hungarian linguist Alexander Csoma de Köros set off for Turkestan, in search of the origins of the Magyar people. He continuously thwarted in his quest - a misunderstood innocent who became unwittingly entangled in the games of imperal intrigue and espionage that were rife in Central Asia at the time.
