摘要:
In foothills of Himalayas sits a house - home to three people and a dog. There is retired judge dreaming of colonial yesterdays; his orphaned granddaughter Sai who has fallen for her tutor; the cook, whose son writes untruthful letters; and judge's dog. This book shows how new world is clashing with old, and future offers both hope and betrayal.
