Plot

Kohima. In this remote Indian village near the border with Burma, a tiny force of British and Indian troops faced the might of the Imperial Japanese Army. Outnumbered ten to one, the defenders fought the Japanese hand to hand in a battle that was amongst the most savage in modern warfare. Based on original research in Japan, Britain and India, Road of Bones is a story about extraordinary courage and the folly of imperial dreams.
