About this audiobook
A devoted mother's idyllic existence in India is shattered when an oversight regarding her marriage threatens to render her children illegitimate. Returning to England, she faces an agonizing, secret struggle to legitimize her sons while keeping the scandalous truth hidden from her judgmental family. The heavy burden of her hidden shame tests her sanity and her unwavering maternal love. As the truth inches closer to the light, the stakes reach a fever pitch of emotional intensity. This poignant masterpiece delivers a stunning critique of rigid social conventions and the sacrifices of motherhood.
