Description

Set against the rich tapestry of 1920s India, a profound mystery unfolds as Perveen Mistry, the country’s first female lawyer, navigates the complexities of both legal challenges and societal expectations. The story seamlessly melds historical intricacies with a tantalizing plot that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. As Perveen delves into the case surrounding a fabled moonstone, she finds herself enveloped in an atmosphere thick with intrigue and danger.

Massey masterfully paints a vivid picture of Indian culture and the struggles faced by women of the era, bringing Perveen's character to life with depth and empathy. Tension builds not only from the unraveling mystery but also from the constraints imposed on women in a patriarchal society, creating a backdrop that is as compelling as the narrative itself.

With each page, the stakes rise, leading to a climax that intertwines personal and professional dilemmas. This novel promises a captivating blend of suspense, romance, and a keen exploration of women's rights and personal agency in a tumultuous time.
