Beskrivelse
Sara, a therapist, always thought her husband Mike died in Afghanistan - but when she learns he actually died in India, her desire to uncover the truth leads her to a clinic in New Delhi. Once in India, Sara is dazzled by the country' s culture and its people. At the clinic, she grows close both to her patient Pritti and a bewitching, low-caste driver named Hemant. Yet Sara finds herself increasingly appalled at the treatment of women; in this country of old traditions and new opportunities, so much remains shocking or forbidden, like the practice of ' Devadasi' - prostitutes who work at temples. As Sara inches towards the truth about Mike' s death and their marriage, and becomes entangled in the dark side of Delhi, she is thrust into the terrifying reality of an India few ever see.
