Samuel Parker served side by side with John as a soldier in the Company, and although it's many years since they last saw each other, the two men still share a close bond.
Charming and loyal, he is well accustomed to life in India and after a chance encounter with Henrietta and Violet in Calcutta, he escorted them to Delhi. Samuel welcomes John's offer to stay and become business partners.
But Samuel bears a grudge against the Company, having received a dishonourable discharge, and has plans to bring them to justice.
