In a small town in the heart of India, a young girl, barely alive,
is found in a sprawling house where thirteen people lie dead. The
girl has been beaten and abused, and the house still smoulders from
the fire that raked through it. The girl now awaits her trial for
the murders that the local police believe she has committed. But an
unconventional social worker, Simran Singh, is convinced of her
innocence. As Simran begins to examine the circumstances around the
case, she encounters a terrifying web of prejudice and deceit in
which lives of women are endangered from birth. Brilliantly
descriptive of tradition-bound Punjab, Kishwar Desai's debut novel
introduces the feisty and independent Simran, whose determination
to seek out the truth places her at odds with her environment. What
she discovers will change her forever.
