A Division of the Spoils
Paul Scott
Paperback
(Avon Books, Aug. 1, 1992)
The great war is over, and India--the jewel in the British crown--has been deemed worthless: a bauble to be tossed to the winds. A colonial policeman corrupted by ambition, power, and hatred goes to shocking extremes of cruelty to perpetuate a disappearing way of life.
