If Thy Hand Offend Thee
When children are found working in a textile factory in India, three lives on three continents begin to unravel.
Second part of John Dryden's epic story of inter-connected lives, set on three continents.
When journalist Prem Sharma rescues a child working in a textile factory outside Delhi, seven thousand miles away in Minnesota, Jim Nostrand, proprietor of church-owned clothing firm Cheap Threads, becomes the scapegoat. Meanwhile, in a private boarding school in England, troubled twelve-year-old Ben seems obsessed with school-shootings and vengeance.
