Sexually ambitious, he is intent on living life to the full, regardless of the consequences. When sloaney rich-girl Sophie falls for him, he grabs the chance to escape his past and pursue the woman of his dreams, the voluptuous sophisticate Sarupa, who happens to be engaged to Sophie’s cousin.Using whatever and whoever he can, Puppy explores the grit and glamour of a city seething with the possibilities and politics of money, race and an incendiary cocktail that explodes, changing him and those closest to him forever...
