If Amelia reveals Sehnaz’s secret to save thousands of British lives in 1857’s vibrant city of Lucknow, will she be the victim of her own secret? 1850’s English society had never encouraged Amelia’s wish of equality with boys of her age, neither in education nor in games. With her sheer determination she fights the man’s world and even fantasies of emancipating repressed women of the then largest English colony, India; especially the widows who are burnt alive with their dead husbands’ pyres.With lots of dreams when she weds Brigadier Colin and moves to the historic city of Lucknow in India, the powerful undercurrent against the British occupation is about to flare up. Not only that, soon she finds Colin’s murky past about his dead first wife. Before she would also become another secret of him, she runs for her life when the armed rebel burns India in 1857.While escaping in a horse cart at night, she helps a burqa-clad woman, Sehnaz, walking alone on Lucknow’s empty streets and gives her lift. Didn’t she one day promise to assist helpless women?Next morning, she realises Sehnaz is a courtesan and is carrying a dark secret for the rebels that could cause a massacre inside The Residency, the English fort she once lived with her husband.If Amelia reveals Sehnaz’s motive, she can’t keep her own…This book is a perfect fit for fans of Alka Joshi’s The Henna Artist.A SAMPLE download will give you 45% of the book AT NO COST.This book has sex scenes in some chapters as required by the story.Read what everyone’s saying about The Pink Mutiny:‘Captivating.
