A Perveen Mistry Novel (Book 4)
India, 1922. Perveen Mistry, the only female lawyer in Bombay, is attending a lavish fundraiser for a new women's hospital when the grandson of an influential Gujarati businessman catches fire, but a servant, Sunanda, rushes to save him, selflessly putting herself in harm's way. Perveen learns that Sunanda, still ailing from her burns, has been arrested on trumped-up charges. Perveen takes Sunanda as a client. When the hospital's chief donor dies suddenly, Miriam Penkar, a Jewish-Indian obstetrician, and Sunanda become suspects. Will Perveen be able to prove Sunanda's innocence?
