The new novel from the author of Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows. British-born Punjabi sisters Rajni, Jezmeen and Shirina have never been close. When their dying mother instructs them to go on a pilgrimage across India to carry out her final rites, the sisters are forced together as they havent been for years, and as the miles rack up, the secrets of the past and present are sure to spill out.
