It is 1926, the year of the General Strike.  Jim Latter, his wife Nina and her former husband, Chester, are living in an uncomfortable ménage à trois at Palm Cottage.  Chester sees the chance of a political comeback while Jim, head of the emergency police, feels he must make a stand.  Nina is caught up in the clash between the two men - a situation which inevitably leads to disaster and tragedy.

 Joyce Cary was born as Arthur Joyce Lunel Cary in Londonderry, Northern Ireland, in 1888. Cary studied art in Edinburgh and Paris and law at Oxford, before fighting in West Africa in World War I. He took up writing when injuries and bad health forced him into an early retirement. Cary wrote several novels, among them Mister Johnson, using his experiences in Africa as background. Cary has been acclaimed for his skill in creating well-developed plots and credible characterizations and for his unique sense of humor, and is best known for a trilogy that includes the novels Herself Surprised, To Be a Pilgrim, and The Horse's Mouth. Cary died in 1957.
