A group of British imperialists arrive in the north of India for the summer. They represent all kinds of issues. There is a matriarch who enjoys running the show. There is a woman who has been left by her worthless husband. There is a missionary who cares about the lives and health of the Indian population. There is a young man who aspires to be the next viceroy. He is arrogant and ambitious. There are lots of trysts going on. People are hot and bored. The Indian population are frightened and oppressed. Ghandi is around somewhere. There are rebels around and there is an incident that makes it obvious that things aren't as optimistic for the invading Britishers as they think. This shapes up to be a really fascinating series.
