Tom Harvey is a captain in the British army stationed in colonial-run Malaya. Having signed up straight from school and now facing the end of his service, the 22-year-old is apathetic and fearful about starting his life back home in industrial Lancashire. Instead, he joins the fledgling port police in Singapore and begins a passionate relationship with a beautiful Chinese girl. But Tom soon discovers the reality underpinning his idyllic paradise: corruption, arms trading and murder. Starting is a semi-autobiographical novel by 90-year-old author Peter Rainey.
