Аннотация

When you're in a pinch, what do you do to survive? Survival in the extreme sense of the word, is the main theme of this novel, which is the fourth book (chronologically, that is) in James Clavell's Asian Saga. That being said, this was the first book to be published, in 1962.
The time is World War II. The place is a brutal prison camp deep in Japanese-occupied territory. Here, within the seething mass of humanity, one man, an American corporal, seeks dominance over both captives and captors alike. His weapons are human courage, unblinking understanding of human weaknesses, and total willingness to exploit every opportunity to enlarge his power and corrupt or destroy anyone who stands in his path.
