BY THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR 'One of our best and most
captivating novelists' PHILIP HENSHER '[Godden] writes with grace
and a cheerfully lilting prose' KIRKUS REVIEWS 'Her craftsmanship
is always sure' NEW YORK TIMES A revered effigy of the God, Shiva,
is missing from the Patna Hall Hotel on south India's exquisite
Coromandel coast. Was it stolen, and to whom does it belong? Young
lawyer Michael Dean, sent from London to argue the case for the
defence, falls under the spell of Artemis, a graceful archaeologist
who is staying at the hotel; but she proves as elusive as the
mystery of the theft he is working on. Her final novel, Cromartie
vs The God Shiva is a magical, evocative exploration of art, love,
class and greed set in Godden's beloved southern India.
