About the book

This is book two of "the raj quartet". India, august 9th 1942: the morning brings raids and the arrest by british police of congress party members. Amongst the prisoners is the distinguished ex-chief minister mohammed ali kasim. Loyal to the party's central vision of a unified free india, his incarceration is a symptom of the growing deterioration of anglo-indian relations. For the long-serving british family, the laytons, the political and social ramifications are immediate, disturbing and tragic. Some, like ronald merrick, believe that true intimacy between the races is impossible; others, such as sarah layton, struggle to come to terms with their anglo-indian past. With growing confusion and bewilderment, the british are forced to confront the violent and often brutal years that lie ahead of them.
