A retired highranking British Indian Army officer who commanded the troops at Maiwand has dropped dead. Colonel Fenlon is in a holding cell awaiting trial for his murder.What role in the BrigadierGenerals death was played by a phial of patent medicine developed in India to treat cholera? Why are Colonel Fenlons forefinger and thumbprint on the neck of the phial when he swears he has never seen it before?Above all, why is Fenlon refusing to enter a plea or even to tell his Defence counsel what took place the evening the BrigadierGeneral dropped dead?
