As princess of an Indian kingdom, she has watched the British East India Company take land and her family's most divine jewel – an emerald the size of an apple.

Themes of colonialism and identity, mixed with an action-packed royal mystery.   PRAISE FOR JASBINDER BILAN: 'A gorgeous sumptuous read from a master storyteller.'
