✦ Synopsis


Fire and Wind is a chronicle of two brothers - one Christian and the other Muslim - in conflict and tackling the challenges of civilizations teetering on the brink of war. Our story begins at the hilltop villa of Viktor Kos, the Dark Triad leader, who is waiting for sons Vayna and Vladimir to arrive. House Kos plans to seize power in oil-rich Azerbaijan. Elsewhere in Baku, Conor Kedar, head of one of the 21 ruling families, is "invited" to a secret meeting in Turkey to confer with the Azeri president about war with neighboring Armenia. Conor is young, but well connected with western bankers, and is tasked with securing financial support for the war effort. Traveling to London, we meet Conor's love, the beautiful and vivacious Tali. While vacationing, a Kos assassin attacks Conor and Tali, but they escape.

The story shifts to the USA, where Jake Moynihan (Conor's half-brother) and girlfriend, Lindy Bedrosian, are training with the enigmatic Vartan Defense...
