These are the highest qualifications of a Thug . . . and lead to certain success and high rank.”Welcome to the feudal India of the early nineteenth century where a band of thugs—cold-blooded, ruthless assassins, and dacoits—are rampaging on the streets, luring unsuspecting travellers only to kill and loot.But the most notorious of their band, Ameer Ali, has been imprisoned, and he has a lot to confess.
