A classic title from a best-selling author, with a brand-new foreword - They were both outsiders in their way. But it was in the class-ridden community of a boys' public school in 1929 that the first spark of conflict was struck between Butler, the rich man's son, and Maitland, the gardener's boy. When Singapore falls to the Japanese in 1942, their paths cross again, in the notorious Changi internment camp, and the hatred between Butler and Maitland resurfaces, transcending the brutalities of captivity to develop its own murderous momentum
