Set in British-occupied India, the book follows the adventures of Kimball O'Hara, a resourceful young boy of mixed heritage, as he navigates the cultural complexities of the region while also becoming embroiled in espionage and the pursuit of a mythical river of healing alongside a Tibetan lama. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to Kim, who plays atop the gun Zam-Zammah in Lahore, demonstrating his carefree existence among the local children despite his poor background. His interactions reveal his cunning, including how he navigates the intricacies of both his heritage and the societal structures around him. Kim encounters a peculiar foreign lama seeking a sacred river linked to Buddhist aspirations, leading to an unexpected companionship. The opening sets the tone for a rich journey filled with adventure, mysticism, and the school of hard knocks that shape Kim's unique character as he embarks on a quest full of intrigue and wonder.
