It is the first decade of the twentieth century and the British Empire in India is at its apogee.
<br/>
As the Viceroy Lord Curzon hands over to his successor and preparations are made for a visit by the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Raj has never seemed mightier and more secure.
<br/>
Yet beneath this glittering surface, in the bazaars and markets of the teeming population, independence is beginning to stir. When a policeman is shot during the royal visit it is up to Kim, still working as the Colonel&apos;s agent, to uncover the conspiracy.
With its vivid portrayal of city and countryside, The Imperial Agent takes us back to the marvellous world of Kipling&apos;s India – but a world changing swiftly. For Kim it is a harsher world, for now his two allegiances – to India and to the Colonel – are coming into conflict.
