Corporal John Bramble is the sole survivor of a British tank crew after Erwin Rommel and his Afrika Korps capture Tobruk in June of 1942 and pursue the British into Egypt. He stumbles across the North African desert into the town of Sidi Halfaya, where he finds the Empress of Britain, a small, isolated hotel owned by Farid. The only other employee is the French chambermaid Mouche, as the cook fled with the British, and the waiter Davos was killed the night before by German bombing. Shortly after entering the hotel, Bramble passes out from his wounds, exhaustion, and the desert heat. Farid, the hotel owner, quickly hides the unconscious Bramble from the swiftly advancing Germans, who eventually take over the hotel to use as headquarters for Field Marshal Rommel and his staff.
