Book description
At the end of the Great War, two young men find themselves far from
home, with everything to gain or everything to lose . . . Charismatic
womaniser Jack Bryant has the world at his feet, but when trouble
catches up with him he's forced to flee Penzance. Honest Ned Sinclair is
on a family adventure in Rangoon when he is dealt a bitter blow. With
all the odds against him, he risks his life in a desperate bid to
escape. Both men hope to start their lives anew, seeking their fortune
in India's fields of gold. Their paths collide in the colourful city of
Bangalore, where they form a friendship like no other. In the years
that follow, they remain inextricably bound by a dark secret, while
their love for the same woman threatens to tear them apart. From the
windswept clifftops of the Cornish coast to the goldmines of southern
India, this is a page-turning story of high adventure, devastating
tragedy and enduring love.
