Critically acclaimed author Indu Sundaresan picks up where she left
off in "The Twentieth Wife" and "The Feast of Roses," returning to
seventeenth-century India as two princesses struggle for supremacy
of their father's kingdom.
Trapped in the shadow of the magnificent tomb their grief-stricken
father is building for his beloved deceased wife, the emperor's
daughters compete for everything: control over the imperial harem,
their father's affection, and the future of their country. They are
forbidden to marry and instead choose to back different brothers in
the fight for ultimate power over the throne. But only one of the
sisters will succeed. With an enthusiasm for history and a flair
for rich detail, Indu Sundaresan brings readers deep into the
complicated lives of Indian women of the time period and highlights
the profound history of one of the most celebrated works of
architecture in the world, the Taj Mahal.
