From the acclaimed author of “The Henna Artist,” Alka Joshi’s latest captivating novel was inspired by the life of painter Amrita Sher-Gil, the “Frida Kahlo of India.” 1937: Young nurse Sona is drawn to the renowned and scandalous painter Mira Novak when they meet while the latter is recovering at a Bombay hospital. But when Mira dies suddenly and mysteriously, Sona falls under suspicion. The key to proving Sona's innocence may lie in a cryptic note and four paintings Mira left in her care, sending the young woman across a tumultuous Europe to meet Mira’s former lovers and friends. Books available from The Novel Neighbor.
