DNF. Sorry....this one just wasn't for me. I stopped on page 50 so won't review it on Goodreads.

Sujata Massey has written many mystery books but this appears to be the beginning of a new series. Her previous books were excellent and set in Japan; this one is in 1920's India. The main character is a Farsi woman who attended law school at Oxford and has returned to India to work with her father. She can not argue cases in court but she is ready for when women are allowed to take the bar. The story moves back in forth in time so we see her back story.which taught me a lot about the Farsi. It is great at showing the differences in caste and religion in Raj India. I look forward to new books in this series.
