The British East India Company plots an invasion of Afghanistan. A bogus casus belli and puppet king are all they need—and the rivalry between their agent, Alexander Burnes, and a Russian spy named Ivan Vitkevitch becomes a zero sum game.
This is the beginning of the Great Game, or, as the Russians knew it: The Tournament of Shadows.
