A curse seems to have fallen upon Satapur's royal family, whose maharaja died of a sudden illness shortly before his teenage son was struck down in a tragic accident. The kingdom is now ruled by an agent of the British Raj on behalf of Satapur's two maharanis, the dowager queen and the maharaja's widow. The royal ladies are in dispute over the education of the young crown prince, and a lawyer's council is required--but the maharanis live in purdah and do not speak to men. Just one person can help them: Perveen Mistry, India's only female lawyer. Perveen is determined to bring peace to the royal house and make a sound recommendation for the young prince's future, but knows she is breaking a rule by traveling alone as a woman into the remote countryside. And she arrives to find that the Satapur palace is full of cold-blooded power plays and ancient vendettas. Too late, she realizes she has walked into a trap. But whose? And how can she protect the royal children from the palace's deadly curse?"--|cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Large type books. 650 0 Women lawyers|zIndia|vFiction. 650 0 Blessing and cursing|vFiction. 650 0 Royal houses|vFiction. 650 0 Purdah|zIndia|vFiction. 650 7 Large type books.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00992678 651 0 India|y20th century|vFiction. 655 0 Large type books. 655 7 Legal stories.|2gsafd 655 7 Mystery fiction.|2gsafd 655 7 Detective and mystery fiction.|2lcgft 655 7 Historical fiction.|2lcgft 800 1 Massey, Sujata.|tMystery of 1920s Bombay ;|v2. 994 C0|bCKE 999 series update YL
