Fifteen-year-old Donald Leroy Samson is the son of an absentee St Lucian father and a drug-addicted English mother.

Everyone in Nandagiri knows their place and the part they were born to play with one exception. The local Anglo-Indians, tainted by their mixed blood, belong . . . nowhere. When news of the Black and Tans atrocities back in Ireland reaches the troops, even their priest cannot cool the mens hot-headed rage. Politics vie with passion as Private Michael Flaherty pays court to Rose, Mrs Aylmers Anglo-Indian maid . . . but mutiny brings heroism and heartbreak in equal measure.
