He sends the two off bleeding, and now the shooter for hire and Richie the ex-con have sworn to get the Colsons.

It comes down to Wayne and Carmen—and finally Carmen on her surprising own—to deal with the rough-trade misfits.

Set against the backdrop of Britain and Russia`s political struggle in central Asia, Kim, the son of a drunken Irish soldier grows up a street-wise orphan in the city of Lahore. Playful and spirited, Kim befriends an aged Tibetan Lama and journeys with him across India, experiencing the exotic culture, religion and people of the subcontinent. On their travels they come across Kim`s father`s old army regiment and as his adventures take him further into the world of secret agents and political intrigue, Kim is torn between his spiritual self and the expectations of his British compatriots.
Two men — a boy who grows into early manhood and an old ascetic priest, the lama — are at the center of the novel. A quest faces them both. Born in India, Kim is nevertheless white, a sahib. While he wants to play the Great Game of Imperialism, he is also spiritually bound to the lama. His aim, as he moves chameleon-like through the two cultures, is to reconcile these opposing strands, while the lama searches for redemption from the Wheel of Life.
