1928. In British-ruled India, headstrong Sita longs to choose her own path, but her only destiny is a good marriage.

After a chance meeting with the Crown Prince leads to a match, her family’s status seems secured and she moves into the palace, where peacocks fill the gardens and tapestries adorn the walls. But royal life is far from simple, and her failure to provide an heir makes her position fragile.

Soon Sita is on the brink of losing everything, and the only way to save herself could mean betraying her oldest friend …

2000. When Priya’s marriage ends in heartbreak, she flees home to India and the palace where her grandmother, Sita, once reigned as Queen. But as grandmother and granddaughter grow closer, Priya has questions.

Why is Sita so reluctant to accept that her royal status ended with Independence? And who is the mysterious woman who waits patiently at the palace gates day after day?

Soon Priya uncovers a secret Sita has kept for years – and which will change the shape of her life forever …
