‘Know that fate has a way to make you bend to its will.’
Four decades. Three individuals. Two families. One epic story...
Bikram, the only son of an impoverished family, enlists in the British Indian Army hoping to draw a modest income. But greed seduces him into wealth and violence, corruption, and a murky political career.
Basanti, a twelve-year-old Bajigarni girl, navigates fraught new boundaries with her nomadic clan to build life and home afresh. But destiny seems always stacked against her beauty and idealism—until one frighteningly triumphant moment in which she reclaims her fate.
Ajit, the erstwhile Zaildar of a vast and thriving estate, also functions as the respected patriarch of a loving family. But tragedy strikes him in rapid succession; unmoored, he plunges into despair.
