Description
Meera, always gracious Meera, is happily submerged in the role of corporate
wife and cookbook writer. Then, one day, her husband fails to come home.
A few streets away, Professor J.A. Krishnamurthy or “Jak”, has recently
returned from Florida, to care for his 19-year-old daughter, the victim of
a tragic accident. The police will not help, her friends have vanished, and a
wall of silence and fear surrounds the incident. But Jak will not
rest until he gets to the truth.
The Lilac House tells how Meera and of Jak's paths cross, how two unsuspecting friends
are in unique positions to help one another uncover secrets of their pasts and
the promise for their futures.
"Dazzlingly alive and brilliantly written, Nair's novel probes the
complicated ways we live with our pasts and struggle to forge our uncertain
futures. About fathers and daughters, husbands and wives, and the thorny,
yearning nature of love, The Lilac House is a knockout." –Caroline
