Un caïd

You trade ration biscuits for stolen silk through the black market in a Japanese POW camp after Singapore falls. King’s hustle keeps him warmer than the officers in their threadbare uniforms. and then a brittle aristocrat keeps sliding close to watch. The war leaves hollow cheeks but not hollower laughs.
