AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'When Phillip Cutler, a young Australian, takes a photograph in Calcutta, he intrudes into a vortex of murder and political intrigue, likely to bring about war. His holiday plans turn into terror-stricken flight across the plains of the Ganges and through the streets of Delhi as he narrowly escapes attempts on his life. From the President's palace to the peasant's pallet no one is what he or she seems and Cutler is deceived by both foes and friends. And which beautiful woman can he trust - provocative Kay or secretive Annapurna?' (Source: Seaview Press website)
