Kimball O'Hara is a street-smart orphan living in the teeming alleyways of 19th-century Lahore. Fluent in the languages, customs, and chaos of India, Kim passes for native — until a twist of fate reveals his true heritage as the son of an Irish soldier. Torn between two worlds, Kim is recruited into the shadowy world of British intelligence during the height of "The Great Game" — the secret war between empires.

As Kim journeys across the subcontinent in disguise, guided by a wandering Tibetan monk in search of spiritual truth, he must navigate espionage, loyalty, and the search for self in a land shaped by contradictions. Is he a spy or a seeker? British or Indian? Tool of empire, or its accidental critic?

With unforgettable landscapes, rich characters, and sharp political undercurrents, Kim is both an epic travelogue and a profound exploration of identity in a fractured world.
