On the eve of 1941, newlywed Nerys Watkins leaves rural Britain to accompany her husband on a missionary posting to the exotic city of Srinagar, India. But when he leaves to take on a complicated mission elsewhere, Nerys discovers a new world. Here, in the heart of Kashmir, the British dance, flirt, and gossip against the backdrop of war, and Neryssoon becomes caught up in a dangerous liaison.Rosie Thomas is the author of a number of highly praised and best-selling novels, including The Kashmir Shawl, which won the Epic Romantic Novel Award from the Romantic Novelists' Association.
