Derwent Drive was known as the Speed Creep. A continual chain of Dashes into Blind. We'd all heard the story about the Creeper who dropped Blind into a garden, only to discover he was standing in a dog pound. It was also the longest creep; twenty-five houses all in a row, no bends, no kinks. & no Creeper had ever done the lot. But Jamie & I reckoned we could do it. Jamie was the best Creeper around. He was the best Buddie you could have. & he was mine. Ever heard about 'creeping' before? Probably not. Nobody really talks about it. That doesn't mean it doesn't happen. It does. Creeping over back fences all the way down a street without getting caught; without being hurt. It happens more than you might think. It's probably happening somewhere tonight. ...

Dr Christina Devenish, Suffragist & Theosophist, is running a birth control clinic in Bombay in 1931. When the clinic is burnt down in an independence riot, her father invites her to visit him in Bhutan, where he is an advisor at the court of the Shabdrung, Bhutan's version of the Dalai Lama.

Arriving in Calcutta, Christina joins a British expedition to Bhutan led by Major Owen Davies, a tough Political Officer. Davies has the covert brief to resolve, even by 'drastic action', the rivalry between the Shabdrung & the Maharaja, Bhutan's temporal ruler. Christina's father is deeply embroiled in the Great Game: & for Davies, he's on the wrong side. As Christina & Owen Davies journey toward the Himalayas, they begin a hungry love affair, knowing that other loyalties will soon intrude; & when Christina meets the Shabdrung, the young god-king's effect on her leads to a devastating final act.
