Description
Against the backdrop of one of history's most pivotal moments, three teenagers from vastly different backgrounds find their lives forever intertwined. In 1947, India is on the cusp of division, and for Tariq, Anupreet, and Margaret, the outcome will be nothing short of life-changing. Tariq, a young Muslim, has his sights set on Oxford, but his path to England is fraught with uncertainty. Meanwhile, Margaret, daughter of a British cartographer, finds herself in India, navigating a world of violence and unrest. As their lives intersect, they must confront the prejudices that threaten to tear them apart. Jennifer Bradbury's masterful tale weaves together the heart-pounding story of three teenagers on the verge of changing each other's lives forever, set against the nearly forgotten history of the partition of India.
