Synopsis

To the cool of the hills at Simla comes a reluctant Dr. McNab, with his wife and young niece. For Emily, romance is in the air. For the mysterious Mrs Forester, there is scandal brewing. And for the Bishop of Simla, rainclouds are not the only storms on the horizon.
This incomplete novel underlines the tragedy of J.G. Farrell's untimely death.
'This is a must.'
