Про цю аудіокнигу

1939, India. Bindu holds her baby close, listening to the monsoon raging outside. She tries to hide her tears behind her sari as she hands her baby into a stranger’s arms, wondering if she will ever see her child again ... When their small savings run out, Bindu reluctantly accepts an offer of marriage from the landlord’s entitled and often unpredictable son. In return, he promises to provide medical care for her beloved grandmother, but alone in a world she doesn’t understand, Bindu is desperately lonely. She soon finds solace in writing recipes and creating new spice mixes, but when her husband finds out, he lashes out in a jealous rage. Heavily pregnant, her husband confines Bindu to her room alone. 1990, London. Eve’s most treasured gift from her adopted father is an Indian recipe book. As she begins to grind and mix the spices penned so carefully in the recipes, she wonders if the crumbling pages in this book could hold the key to uncovering her past. Will finding her birth family, lost for so long, help Eve to find her place in the world, or will it tear her apart?
