When Singapore surrendered to the Japanese in 1942 the Allied POWs, mostly British but including a few Americans, were incarcerated in Changi prison. This was a POW detention center like no other.

King, a wheeler dealer who has managed to established a pretty good life for himself in the camp.

Peter Marlowe an upper class British officer who is fascinated with King’s élan and no rules approach to life…
