Description: Here is the story of a man's emotional ties to a country for whose dignity and justice he is willing to sacrifice everything.
Running parallel with the tale of his struggle for the new India is a deeply romantic and passionate love affair whose bitter end leads to the final disillusion of a crushed man.
The struggle with which we are left at the end of the book is the new struggle - that of a woman's attempts to remake a defeated man.
Notes: 'Authentic and exciting. ... A compelling and moving story, which conveys much in its telling about the old and new India.' Glasgow Herald.
'Mr. Masters' descriptions of the Indian scene are as highly coloured as ever and his narrative as exciting and dashing.' Evening Standard.
