Description
A POWERFUL TALE OF LOVE, BETRAYAL, AND AN INDOMITABLE SPIRIT.
Discover the unforgettable story of Jindan Kaur, the daughter of a royal kennel keeper who rose to become the favorite queen of Maharaja Ranjit Singh. When her young son, Dalip, unexpectedly inherits the throne of Punjab, Jindan steps into the role of regent—sharp-eyed, passionate, and fiercely dedicated to protecting her son’s heritage against the encroaching British empire.
Her influence was so formidable that the British deemed her a "rebel queen," imprisoning and exiling her. Yet, her indomitable will remained unbroken. Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni masterfully brings to life one of the most fearless women of the nineteenth century in this exquisite novel that explores the indestructible bond between a mother and child, the complexities of loyalty, and the price of power.
