Set
in 1757, Calcutta is on the brink of war and the East India Company,
led by the fearsome Sir Peter Chilcott, is quickly advancing. The
Nawab’s neglected daughter, Meena, is desperate to escape her
gilded cage and when she meets the intriguing James Chilcott, nephew
of Sir Peter, she finds herself falling under his spell.
James
is different from the white men she has been taught to fear, and the
lovers find themselves fleeing Calcutta with blood on their hands and
stolen gold in their pockets. As Meena finds herself in a foreign
land with no one to turn to, she is forced to find out what she is
willing to sacrifice when love turns to hate.
