A story about a life blossoming despite the odds set against it by centuries-old traditions, the aftermath of a world war, and a country's independence from centuries of foreign rule.
“There should be more to life than pretending to be dead,” believes Meena, a 25-year-old educated widow to whom love, marriage, and children are forbidden by the traditions of 1930s India still under the British Raj. When a paid job for an Englishwoman opens the door to having it all, Meena crosses the boundaries of race and religion to build the life forbidden to her.
Only to lose everything after India gains its independence from Great Britain and the new country is thrown into the chaos of partition. Will Meena reunite with her lost family before she falls in love with the man helping her find them?
A man she had given up a long time ago to keep a promise to a friend. A man who is now her only hope for survival. A man still very much in love with her. What will unfold between them the longer it takes Meena to find her family? Which secrets will be revealed when she does?
