Lorsqu'il décide de parcourir en solitaire les 40 000 kilomètres de l'équateur, Mike Horn se lance un défi inouï. Des côtes d'Afrique aux portes de l'Asie, en passant par l'immensité du continent américain, il devra traverser trois océans ; autant de jungles impénétrables ; deux sommets de 6 000 mètres ; des pays en guerre, rongés par la maladie, envahis d'une faune hostile et d'une flore vénéneuse. Son exigence est stricte : jamais il ne quittera la " latitude zéro ", jamais il ne s'éloignera de cette ligne imaginaire... Avec cette aventure où le destin du voyageur bascule au gré des tempêtes et des rencontres, Mike Horn se lance dans un violent face-à -face avec le monde : envoûtante de beauté, sa route croisera l'errance des damnés de la terre, des chercheurs d'or de l'Amazonie aux peuples d'Afrique en guerre.
