Summaries

In a remote region of post-independence India, the love of a blind British woman pricks the conscience of an arms dealer.

During India's first years of independence from Britain, Steve Gibbs lands his armaments-loaded plane in Ghandahar province, hoping to get rich. Pacifist Prime Minister Singh hopes to reach an agreement with guerilla leader Khan, the maharajah is a fool, and the British residents are living in the past. Steve's love interest is Joan Willoughby, a parson's blind daughter.—Ed Stephan <[email protected]>
