Ahalya Ghai is just seventeen when a tsunami rips through her
Indian village. Ahalya and her sister Sita are the sole survivors
of their family. Destitute, their only hope is to find refuge at a
convent in Chennai, many miles away. A driver agrees to take them.
But the second they get into that car they are doomed - the two
sisters are sold. Ahalya doesn't understand why any man would pay
so much money for them. She will soon find out. On the other side
of the world, Washington, D.C. lawyer Thomas Clarke witnesses the
kidnapping of a young girl. Struggling to cope after the death of
his baby daughter and the collapse of his marriage to Priya, he
takes a sabbatical from his high-pressure job and accepts a
position with the Bombay branch of CASE, the Coalition Against
Sexual Exploitation. He is now on a path that not only involves
saving himself and his marriage, but the lives of Ahalya and Sita
Ghai. A Walk Across The Sun is about cruelty and loss. It is about
family and survival. And ultimately it is about love, and the
immeasurable strength of the human spirit.
