Synopsis

British Gujarat, 1905.

Despairing of the social injustices and crippling taxes under the British Raj, Lalji, 19, flees to British East Africa hoping to build a better life using his natural business skills and acumen. But he soon finds unexpected dangers in his new home- turbulent politics and war with German East Africa- as well as some surprising opportunities. A combination of luck, coincidence, and his flair for commerce lead to early success. Then, just as he is at his most vulnerable, a new threat emerges from where he least expects: from within his own family. Can Lalji beat overwhelming odds to fulfill his hopes and ambitions?
