Description:

Derek Carr is a con-man, art forger, and part time arms dealer trying to stay out of WWII. However, he is blackmailed by British Intelligence to infiltrate the Indian nationalist movement in Bombay. The story encompasses threatened terrorist activity in conjunction with the Japanese invasion of India supported by the Indian National Army and the destruction of Bombay harbor by the explosions of several ammunition ships. Allington put together a masterful story of romance and adventure with the struggle of the characters to determine the morality of the different sides in war.
