The storyteller's secret : a novel / Sejal Badani.

Badani, Sejal, (author.).

Summary:

Nothing prepares Jaya, a New York journalist, for the heartbreak of her third miscarriage and the unraveling of her marriage. To get away, she decides to go to India to uncover answers to her family's past and falls in love with India. Then she meets, Ravi, her grandmother's former servant and trusted confidant, who reveals the resilience, struggles, secret love, and tragic fall of Jaya's pioneering grandmother during the British occupation. Through her courageous grandmother's arrestingly romantic and heart-wrenching story, Jaya discovers the legacy bequeathed to her and a strength that, until now, she never knew was possible.
