Summary:

India, 1920: exotic, glamorous and wrenching away from Britain's
colonial grip, only to be thrown into religious violence and
terrorism. Isabel, a young woman in search of herself and in flight
from the ravages of the Great War, has married a career soldier whose
brutality and cruelty sicken her. Upon arrival in India she is thrust
headlong into a passionate and dangerous liaison with Sam, an Indian
doctor who insists, against all the odds, on the right to be both
black and British.
